gh-browse: Print the destination URL without open the web browser.
$ gh browse --no-browser
try on your machine

The "gh browse --no-browser" command is used in the GitHub CLI (Command Line Interface) tool to open the GitHub repository or pull request in the default web browser.

Here's what each part of the command means:

  • "gh": Stands for GitHub CLI, which is a command-line tool for interacting with GitHub.
  • "browse": A specific command within the GitHub CLI that allows you to open a GitHub repository or pull request in a web browser.
  • "--no-browser": An optional flag that tells the command not to open the repository or pull request in a web browser but instead only prints the URL that would be opened.

In summary, if you execute the "gh browse --no-browser" command, it will print the URL of the specified GitHub repository or pull request, but it will not automatically open it in your default web browser.
