Hi

I tried to open a website by runnin 'git web--browse http://google.com' and it replied 'No known browser available'. I also tried with '--browser=chrome' and '--browser=google-chrome' but the responded with 'The browser chrome is not available as 'chrome'.'

I expected the command to open a new tab in my browser in each of the 3 tries. This has worked for my system before.

OS X 10.8.2, git 1.8.2, Google Chrome 27.0.1438.7 dev
