I wonder if "open" works on OS X outside the OS X GUI environment. (And do 
people use OS X outside the OS X GUI environment ?)

In the git "next" branch, "git-help--browse" has been 
renamed "git-web--browse". And the original patch is 
against "git-web--browse" except in the title where it is 
about "git-help--browse".

Anyway now in "next", "git-web--browse" is used by both "git help" and "git 
instaweb", so the documentation of both commands need an update.

Thanks,
Christian.
