Refined-github: What happened to the preview of line links?

[ghost]

Hey there :wave: Using this extension, still – from the beginning.

Before few days i just notice in few times that when link to a line is posted in issue/pr it was automatically shown/rendered. It was like embedded gist (almost).

Don't know. I don't think it was from another extension, cuz i don't have much for GitHub stuff.

That’s a native GitHub feature. Testing

Yep still works. Maybe you have to link directly to a commit, not a branch. This is what I used earlier:

Hm. Yea. Okey, thanks!

But in any way it would be great to work for branches too.

The probably didn't implement that because branches change and for that reason those links will become wrong at some point. In short they're encouraging you to get the permalink

A reminder here that with Refined GitHub pressing y would also add the permalink to your clipboard.

y is a keyboard shortcut from GitHub itself ;)

[fregante]

@jdreesen GitHub's shortcut will open the permalink; Refined GitHub will also _copy_ its URL.

Oh wow, I didn't know that, that's very nice :)
