github url shortener / generate custom github url

Command:

curl https://git.io/ -i -F "url=https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_URL" -F "code=YOUR_CUSTOM_NAME"

URLs that can be shortened:

  • https://github.com/*
  • https://*.github.com
  • https://*.github.com/*
  • https://*.github.io
  • https://*.github.io/*
  • https://*.githubusercontent.com/*

If you accidentally make a typo in the custom name, you can add ? at the end in your GitHub URL.

curl https://git.io/ -i -F "url=https://github.com/YOUR_GITHUB_URL?" -F "code=YOUR_CUSTOM_NAME"

If you want to revoke your custom name (shortened url), you should contact GitHub Support Team.
