## 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 and instead open it via the CLI!

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

- [x] View Branches, Commits & Issues
- [x] Custom Remote
