allow to type a branch name about git-link HOT 3 OPEN

What about functions like these?

(defun git-link-master-branch ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((git-link-default-branch "master"))
    (call-interactively 'git-link)))
(defun git-link-at-commit ()
  (interactive)
  (let ((git-link-use-commit t))
    (call-interactively 'git-link)))

Hi!

I am sometimes working on a local branch (not pushed to a remote location) and in this case using git-link generate a wrong url

Do you know about these options?

Would it be possible to allow to chose the branch in some cases?

Certainly seems reasonable.

I am thinking of something simple, e.g:
M-x git-link => do not prompt, generate link
C-u M-x git-link => ask for the remote name first
C-u C-u M-x git-link => ask for the remote and the branch n

Also seems reasonable, though could this be done another way? Just curious.

What do you think? I could work on a simple PR to implement this if you like the idea.

Pull request it up!

C-u C-u M-x git-link => ask for the remote and the branch name

But... what if someone only wants to specify the branch name? May get complicated.

At some point I wanted to remove git-link-commit and incorporate it into git-link. That's a lot of prefix options. So I guess my question of "could this be done another way" may be somewhat more relevant.

Maybe it's sign that adding git-link-commit to git-link is a bad idea. Or, that prompting for branch is 😈.
