The first accounts for the fact that the existence of .git/$(GIT_BRANCH) is not guaranteed (try a git gc for example), so switches the dep to .git/HEAD which I've used in other similar situations.

The second will use the user's preferred pdf viewer, rather than hardcoded evince, to open the file. (As a side effect, it doesn't block the terminal - it launches in the background)

Oh, and thanks! Never heard of xdg-open.
