Hi, I was just wondering if there’s a means of using projectile to
open a projects GitHub repository?

A quick couple of searches did not show an obvious answer, but I
believe I’ve read about a user who did this previously.

Thank you!

Not `projectile`\-specific, but see [`browse-at-
remote`](https://github.com/rmuslimov/browse-at-remote) and
[`forge`](https://github.com/magit/forge) (of interest are `forge-
browse-*` commands).

This is how doom-emacs does it (uses only `browse-at-remote`, bound to
`SPC g o h`):

I heard about this project recently; it does not open the webrowser
directly, but it puts URLs for the forge in the kill ring, including
line numbers: https://github.com/sshaw/git-link

I am sure you could hook it up to `browse-url` pretty easily.

Thanks guys! Browse-at-remote is what I was looking for. I should’ve
realized the word “remote” was what I needed. lol
