Previously if you had a remote in the format: https://github.com/owner/repo/ When using Gbrowse from fugitive, there would be double slashes in the opened URL: https://github.com/owner/repo//blob/master/README.md This caused GitHub not to show a preview of the lines inline if you posted it in a comment. This change strips the trailing slash if it exists.
rhubarb.vim
If fugitive.vim is the Git, rhubarb.vim is the Hub. Here's the full list of features:
-
Enables
:Gbrowsefrom fugitive.vim to open GitHub URLs. -
Sets up
:Gitto usehubif installed rather thangit. -
In commit messages, GitHub issues, issue URLs, and collaborators can be omni-completed (
<C-X><C-O>, see:help compl-omni). This makes inserting thoseCloses #123remarks slightly easier than copying and pasting from the browser.
Installation
If you don't have a preferred installation method, I recommend installing pathogen.vim, and then simply copy and paste:
cd ~/.vim/bundle
git clone https://github.com/tpope/vim-rhubarb.git
vim -u NONE -c "helptags vim-rhubarb/doc" -c q
You'll also need fugitive.vim.
Curl (included with macOS) is required for features
that use the GitHub API (i.e., :Gbrowse doesn't need it).
Generate a personal access token
with repo permissions and add it to your .netrc:
echo 'machine api.github.com login <user> password <token>' >> ~/.netrc
If you are using GitHub Enterprise, repeat this step for each domain (omit the
api. portion). You'll also need to tell Rhubarb the root URLs:
let g:github_enterprise_urls = ['https://example.com']
FAQ
How do I turn off that preview window that shows the issue body?
