h

Some more practical tips: Install the `hub` CLI[1]. Being able to fork, open and checkout pull-requests directly from the command-line reduced a lot of friction that I had. Install the `h` tool[2] to automatically checkout repos in a fixed layout compatible with Go. `h org/repo` automatically clones and changes directory in one command. Instead of browsing a repo in the browser, use `h` and directly jump into the code. Install the `vim-rhubarb` plugin[3]. This allows to select a few lines in the code and then type `:Gbrowse` to open the browser, with the same lines selected on GitHub. And then share the location to a colleague.

I built https://github.com/zimbatm/h to satisfy the same need but it's a command-line tool, not a FUSE filesystem. In some way I prefer it because transparent network access doesn't work really well with failure modes. Usage: `h <owner>/<repo>` clones the repo, if it doesn't exist, and takes you there. This and hub are integral to my developer workflow: $ h some/repo $ git checkout -b some-branch [hack and commit] $ hub fork $ git push -u zimbatm $ hub pull-request Done
