* Link to Magit buffers from Org documents
This package defines several Org link types, which can be used to
link to certain Magit buffers. Use the command ~org-store-link~
while such a buffer is current to store a link. Later you can
insert it into an Org buffer using the command ~org-insert-link~.
** Format
The three link types defined here take these forms:
#+begin_src text
orgit:/path/to/repo/ links to a magit-status buffer
orgit-log:/path/to/repo/::REV links to a magit-log buffer
orgit-rev:/path/to/repo/::ARGS links to a magit-revision buffer
#+end_src
Before ~v1.3.0~ only the first revision was stored in ~orgit-log~
links, and all other revisions were discarded. All other arguments
were also discarded and Magit's usual mechanism for determining the
switches and options was used instead.
For backward compatibility, and because it is the common case and
looks best, ARGS by default has the form ~REV~ as before. However if
linking to a log buffer that shows the log for multiple revisions,
then ~("REV"...)~ is used instead. If ~orgit-log-save-arguments~ is
non-nil, then ~(("REV"...) ("ARG"...) [("FILE"...)])~ is always used,
which allows restoring the buffer most faithfully.
** Export
When an Org file containing such links is exported, then the url of
the remote configured with ~orgit-remote~ is used to generate a web
url according to ~orgit-export-alist~. That webpage should present
approximately the same information as the Magit buffer would.
Both the remote to be considered the public remote, as well as the
actual web urls can be defined in individual repositories using Git
variables.
To use a remote different from ~orgit-remote~ but still use
~orgit-export-alist~ to generate the web urls, use:
#+begin_src text
git config orgit.remote REMOTE-NAME
#+end_src
To explicitly define the web urls, use something like:
#+begin_src text
git config orgit.status http://example.com/repo/overview
git config orgit.log http://example.com/repo/history/%r
git config orgit.rev http://example.com/repo/revision/%r
#+end_src
