glab-repo: View a repository in the default web browser.
$ glab repo view ${owner}/${repository} --web
try on your machine

This command is likely part of a GitLab (glab) CLI tool.

The repo view command is used to view the details and information about a specific repository in the GitLab platform.

${owner}/${repository} is a placeholder that needs to be replaced with the actual owner and repository name you want to view. For example, if you want to view the repository called myproject owned by user johnsmith, you would replace ${owner}/${repository} as johnsmith/myproject.

The --web flag is used to open the repository in the web browser instead of just displaying the details in the CLI. This will launch the repository page in the default browser of your system, allowing you to explore and interact with the repository visually.

Overall, this command is used to quickly view repository details and open it in a web browser for further exploration or interaction.
