git browse-ci [] [--provider ] [--open] [--help]

    The Git commit, branch, or tag to browse CI results for. If omitted, defaults to the current branch.

--provider
    Specifies the CI provider to use. If omitted, the script attempts to autodetect based on the repository. Common providers include Travis CI, GitLab CI, and GitHub Actions.

--open
    Automatically opens the CI results link in your default web browser.

--help
    Displays the help message.

The `git-browse-ci` command helps you quickly access Continuous Integration (CI) build results directly from your Git repository. It identifies the relevant CI system(s) configured for your project (e.g., Travis CI, GitLab CI, GitHub Actions), retrieves the build status and link to logs for the specified commit or branch, and opens the link in your default web browser. This streamlines the debugging process by allowing you to investigate build failures directly from your terminal without manually searching for the corresponding CI run. The script tries to auto-detect based on git repository information but allows overriding parameters.

The script uses heuristics based on the contents of `.git/config` (remote URLs) and the presence of files like `.travis.yml` or `.gitlab-ci.yml` to automatically detect the CI provider. This may not always be accurate, so using the `--provider` flag is recommended for more reliable results.
The heuristics are likely to rely on remote names 'origin'.

The command requires Python and likely the `requests` library, and xdg-open. It also needs to read git configuration. The browser opening capability depends on `xdg-open`, `open`, `start` (platform-dependent commands).
