Open the current repository in the Tower Git client via a button in the VS Code status bar.

Let's assume you have VS Code and Tower installed.

Install the extension from the Marketplace, or run the following in VS Code's command palette:

ext install kitschpatrol.open-in-git-tower-button

Issues and pull requests are welcome.
