Customization

Remote types

By default browse-at-remote knows how to work with popular remote types (github/gitlab..). Knowledge how to work with certain remote-type comes from mapping browse-at-remote-remote-type-domains. It defines that github.com should be treat in github manner, bitbucket.org in bitbucket manner and so on. In your development you may have some specific git-url, and browse-at-remote will before confuse which remote-type map to your domain.

Two solution available:

In that case you can to customize that. (M-x customize ... browse-at-remote-remote-type-domains). For now our package supports next remote-types:
- bitbucket.com
- gitlab.com
- github.com
- Stash
- git.savannah.gnu.org
- gist.github.com
- Phabricator
- git.sr.ht
- pagure.io
- vs-ssh.visualstudio.com
Set specific remote-type directly in git repo. For example, if your repository is hosted on GitHub enterprise, you should add following setting to its config::

git config --add browseAtRemote.type "github"

or for private Stash repository use command::

git config --add browseAtRemote.type "stash"

Excluding line number if no region is selected

By default browse-at-remote add line number when region is not selected in file attached buffer. If you don't like that and what to see no line information URL, it's possible to disable that by adding:::

(setq browse-at-remote-add-line-number-if-no-region-selected nil)

Or setting via UI with M-x customize.

Customize how the host is resolved

There are cases where you might need to resolve a remote host to a particular value. For example, one common strategy to manage multiple SSH keys is to add an entry to ~/.ssh.config::

Host mycompany.github.com HostName github.com User git IdentityFile ~/.ssh/id_rsa_mycompany

For such cases, you can use the :actual-host property::

(add-to-list 'browse-at-remote-remote-type-regexps `(:host ,(rx bol "mycompany.github.com" eol) :type "github" :actual-host "github.com"))

You can also directly configure the repository::

git config --add browseAtRemote.actualHost "github.com"

Adding new remote type

You can add your own remote if you need - PRs are welcome! Please see good examples here: gnu-savannah-remote, or stash-remote.

Usage:

Call function from emacs buffer::

M-x browse-at-remote

or::

M-x bar-browse

or just call C-c g g if you've already added binding before. You can use this command in dired buffers too.
Target page at github/bitbucket will be opened using your default browser:
