Git log alias

This short but sweet post shows how to create a simple command to create an alias to a suped-up git log.

It's just a one-liner

$ git config --global alias.lg "log --color --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit"

I didn't know how to alias commands in git before, so I might find this useful.
