Open in GitHub

Open the current project or file in github.com.

There are many other extensions for doing this, but they either don't work well for me or they provide too few/many functionalities.

Install

Follow the instructions in the Marketplace, or run the following in the command palette:

ext install fabiospampinato.vscode-open-in-github

Usage

It adds 12 commands to the command palette:

'Open in GitHub: Project' // Open the current project in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: File' // Open the current file in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: File Blame' // Open the current file's blame in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: File History' // Open the current file's history in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: File Permalink' // Open the current file's permalink in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: Issues' // Open the current project's issues in GitHub

'Open in GitHub: Projects' // Open the current project's projects in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: Wiki' // Open the current project's wiki in GitHub
'Open in GitHub: Settings' // Open the current project's settings in GitHub
