The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

The Ultimate Git Alias Setup

If you use git on the command-line, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to explore your repos with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.

Some people don't add aliases because they don't want to have to adjust to not having them on a remote server. Personally, I find that having aliases doesn't mean I that forget the underlying commands, and aliases provide such a massive improvement to my workflow that it would be crazy not to have them.

The simplest way to add an alias for a specific git command is to use a standard bash alias.

dpsk / deploy.rb
Created July 5, 2012 12:42 — forked from mikhailov/0. nginx_setup.sh
Nginx+Unicorn (production-ready setup)
# Capistrano configuration
#
# require 'new_relic/recipes' - Newrelic notification about deployment
# require 'capistrano/ext/multistage' - We use 2 deployment environment: staging and production.
# set :deploy_via, :remote_cache - fetch only latest changes during deployment
# set :normalize_asset_timestamps - no need to touch (date modification) every assets
# "deploy:web:disable" - traditional maintenance page (during DB migrations deployment)
# task :restart - Unicorn with preload_app should be reloaded by USR2+QUIT signals, not HUP
