Subject: [PATCH] web--browse: Add support for xdg-open.
Date: Sat, 26 Oct 2013 19:43:54 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <4642757.rY5h83ya4f@descartes> (raw)

xdg-open is a tool similar to git-web--browse.  It opens a file or URL in the
user's preferred application.  It could probably be made default at least on
Linux with a graphical environment.
