I've taken a look at the documentation but it's a little thin on what values are acceptable. Does anyone know if there's a value to open Google Chrome incognito and/or have a complete list (who knows I might want to open a project in IE/Edge one day).

I've tried:

  • browser: "google chrome -incognito"
  • browser: "-incognito"
  • browser: "incognito"

Not many more alternatives, I reckon.

Thanks in advance!

Chrome's command line switch is actually --incognito (two dashes), but I tried it in my browsersync Gulp task and that didn't work.

The workaround I'm using is to use a Chrome extension to switch my development domain name to incognito. It looks like there are a couple extensions that do that, I use Ghost Incognito: https://chrome.google.com/webstore/detail/ghost-incognito/gedeaafllmnkkgbinfnleblcglamgebg?hl=en-US

in general, I created a shortcut to launch the browser in private mode. then in browser-sync settings added parameter:

browser: 'absolute path to shortcut'

Hurrah!
