It would be really cool if you could define as part of your application.cfc a github repo & branch or commit so that when errors are output they actually map to the code on github.

The idea would be that an additional line would be added to the "Tag Context" in the stack trace for each line to say "View on github" and then just link to a URL like this:

I'm constantly looking at a stack trace that someone emails me and then trying to figure out what the actual code looks like and usually because I don't have that particular code on my machine... I then just hunt down that line on github.

Just a crazy idea but I figured I would see if anyone else would find it as helpful as I would.

Hi Greg,

This sounds like a great idea for an extension and it would be even better if you could define the source, e.g. Github, Bitbucket, self hosted solution, etc...

Kind regards,

Andrew
