OPTIONS
-------
--b BROWSER|--browser=BROWSER::
+-b BROWSER::
+--browser=BROWSER::
Use the specified BROWSER. It must be in the list of supported
browsers.
--t BROWSER|--tool=BROWSER::
+-t BROWSER::
+--tool=BROWSER::
Same as above.
--c CONF.VAR|--config=CONF.VAR::
+-c CONF.VAR::
+--config=CONF.VAR::
CONF.VAR is looked up in the git config files. If it's set,
then its value specify the browser that should be used.
You can explicitly provide a full path to your preferred browser by
setting the configuration variable 'browser.<tool>.path'. For example,
you can configure the absolute path to firefox by setting
-'browser.firefox.path'. Otherwise, 'git-web--browse' assumes the tool
+'browser.firefox.path'. Otherwise, 'git web--browse' assumes the tool
is available in PATH.
browser.<tool>.cmd
When the browser, specified by options or configuration variables, is
not among the supported ones, then the corresponding
'browser.<tool>.cmd' configuration variable will be looked up. If this
-variable exists then "git web--browse" will treat the specified tool
+variable exists then 'git web--browse' will treat the specified tool
as a custom command and will use a shell eval to run the command with
the URLs passed as arguments.
-Note about git config --global
+Note about konqueror
+--------------------
+
+When 'konqueror' is specified by a command line option or a
+configuration variable, we launch 'kfmclient' to try to open the HTML
+man page on an already opened konqueror in a new tab if possible.
+
+For consistency, we also try such a trick if 'browser.konqueror.path' is
+set to something like 'A_PATH_TO/konqueror'. That means we will try to
+launch 'A_PATH_TO/kfmclient' instead.
+
+If you really want to use 'konqueror', then you can use something like
+the following:
+
+------------------------------------------------
+ [web]
+ browser = konq
+
+ [browser "konq"]
+ cmd = A_PATH_TO/konqueror
+------------------------------------------------
+
+Note about git-config --global
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Note that these configuration variables should probably be set using
