What is the current behavior?

circleci open opens the page for the current repo in the user's default browser

What is the requested behavior?

circleci open opens the page for the current branch in the current repo in the user's default browser. i.e. by adding the branch query string with the current branch name as its value to the url.

Alternative suggestions I would find this more useful than the current behaviour which takes you to a page unfiltered by branch, but it might also be good just to have a --branch option on the open command.

Hi Max, thanks for the suggestion. I've been thinking about this recently, and I was thinking of having circleci open andd ?filter=mine to the URL, to only show your own pipelines:

I've thought about opening on the branch page too, but I'm a little hesitant because if there are no pipelines created on CircleCI (if you have not pushed yet perhaps) you get an empty page.

wdyt?
