What is the URL to a heroku git repository?


I am new to Heroku. Recently I created a NodeJS application with the Heroku git and deployed it on Heroku. I used the following command to clone the repository to my local computer from the Heroku git.

heroku git:clone -a {app_name}

How would I be able to browse the repository on the Heroku git rather than locally, like GitHub?

    You don't.

    Heroku is a platform as a service hosting provider, not a repository host. You can clone from it, but that's not what it's designed to do:

    Heroku provides the git service primarily for deployment, and the ability to clone from it is offered as a convenience. We strongly recommend you store your code in another git repository such as GitHub and treat that as canonical.

    It doesn't provide a web interface to its Git repositories.
