git-view

A git sub-command to view your git repository on GitHub!

About

Are you also frustrated from moving your hands away from the keyboard to view your git repository on GitHub?

Me too!!!

git-view alleviates that pain by allowing you to chuck away your mouse!

Note:
You should always use git view -h instead of git view --help as the manpage/html files are NOT included.
