  • PR Description
    Some operating systems 'open' implementations do not like when some special characters are unencoded, so they will double-encode the branch name, which we already encode.

This particularly matters since branch names with / are common.

Fixes #4321

@jesseduffield @stefanhaller Seems to me to be a free win for Mac users. Doesn't break anything for me on WSL who didn't have the original bug.

Just so I'm clear on the problem: if we include the square brackets, the browser will consider the URL un-encoded, and then encode it (a second time) causing issues.

Makes sense

Yeah, most strictly, it seems to be the implementation of open that thinks that, which is why this is OS specific. But either way, the / in the branch name gets double encoded

Can this be merged? 😄 Would love to start using this feature
