ghrepo extracts a GitHub repository's owner & name from various GitHub URL formats (or just from a string of the form OWNER/REPONAME or REPONAME), and the resulting object provides properties for going in reverse to determine the possible URLs. Also included is a struct for performing a couple useful inspections on local Git repositories, including determining the corresponding GitHub owner & repository name.

Example

use std::error::Error;
use std::str::FromStr;
use ghrepo::GHRepo;

fn main() -> Result<(), Box<dyn Error>> {
    let repo = GHRepo::new("octocat", "repository")?;
    assert_eq!(repo.owner(), "octocat");
    assert_eq!(repo.name(), "repository");
    assert_eq!(repo.to_string(), "octocat/repository");
    assert_eq!(repo.html_url(), "https://github.com/octocat/repository");

    let repo2 = GHRepo::from_str("octocat/repository")?;
    assert_eq!(repo, repo2);

    let repo3 = GHRepo::from_str("https://github.com/octocat/repository")?;
    assert_eq!(repo, repo3);
    Ok(())
}

Command

There is also an accompanying binary package ghrepo-cli that provides a CLI command named ghrepo for showing the GitHub repository for a directory, optionally along with derived URLs. Feel free to install it if you're interested!
