tiny
git.io for the lazy
Synopsis
tiny [-u --user <username>]
[-r --repo <repository>]
[-c --code <vanity code>]
[-o --open]
[-h --help]
tiny [-c --code] [-o --open] owned-repo/url
Description
Tap into git.io, github's URL shortener service, to easily shorten any github URL. The generated URL is printed to stdout and copied to the clipboard. You can optionally specify the -o flag to open it up on your browser too.
Options
-u --user
Username. If omitted, the git global config is queried.
-r --repo
Repository name.
-c --code
Own code to setup a personal vanity URL. A regular short URL is generated if the specified code is not available.
-o --open
Open the short URL in the browser.
-h --help
Display usage help.
Default Options
It's possible to omit the -u option and just specify the url to shorten.
tiny my-awesome-repo
In this case, the username will be retrieved from your git configuration file. You can add your github username to git's configuration like this:
git config github.user <your username>
Another common use case is to simply copy paste an existing URL into the terminal:
tiny [-o --open] http://github.com/facebook/react
Diagnostics
The following error codes are generated:
-
1 git.io failed to shorten the URL
-
2 invalid input or no input.
