Git Blame - git commits always opens in GitHub as the upstream repo #250794
Description
Type: Bug
When using Git Blame's "Open on GitHub" button, the commit opens on the upstream repo if it's set as one of the remotes, even when the commit is not apart of that repo and is committed on the origin repo. A warning is also displayed on GitHub:
This commit does not belong to any branch on this repository, and may belong to a fork outside of the repository.
The commits should be opening in the origin repo not the upstream. If I remove the upstream remote, then opening commits work as aspected.
A somewhat related issue is #239878; the Git Blame extension as mentioned in the issue also opens commits as aspected in the origin repo with the default settings.
