git-help--browse: improve browser support under OS X

jaysoffian · gitster · commit 969702a9575a · 2008-02-16T00:45:57.000-08:00
/usr/bin/open &lt;document&gt; is used under OS X to open a document as if the
user had double-clicked on the file's icon (i.e. HTML files are opened
w/the user's default browser).
