I've just had the chance to test these alias.

I've tested first the second alias. I've put this line in my bashrc:
alias git-cl="BROWSER=/usr/bin/midori /home/fede/src/git-cl/git-cl"

When I upload the patch, Midori is launched with the following link, 
which doesn't work (connection refused):
https://codereview.appspot.com/get-access-token?port=8001

If I remove ?port=8001 I see the access token, but I don't know how to 
use it.


So I tried the first alias:
alias git-cl="/home/fede/src/git-cl/git-cl --no_oauth2_webbrowser"

But it doesn't work either, because the option should follow the real 
command:

$ git-cl upload origin/master
unknown command: --no_oauth2_webbrowser
usage: /home/fede/src/git-cl/git-cl <command>


So I decided to use this:

alias git-cl-upload="/home/fede/src/git-cl/git-cl upload origin/master 
--no_oauth2_webbrowser"

And:

$ git-cl-upload
Usage: git cl upload [options] [args to "git diff"]

git-cl: error: no such option: --no_oauth2_webbrowser

WTF!
I guess that I'll temporarily change my default browser in GNOME 
settings.
