I searched everywhere, only to find a very similar question but about GitHub rather than Git on Stack Overflow.
I need a link locally referring to a line in a branch in a file and in a repository. I know I can do it by using a global mark, for instance in Vim, but can I skin a cat in a Git way? I only know a little about the plumbing commands of Git. Maybe in repository/branch/file/line
form?

You could use git show
and output it to vim along with a specific line number like the following:
git show branch_name:your_file | vim - +45
or use a specific hash:
git show b4524bcd:your_file | vim - +45
