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.

# .bashrc

#!/bin/bash

mkdir wordpress-site && cd wordpress-site

touch docker-compose.yml

cat > docker-compose.yml <<EOL
version: "2"

# DESCRIPTION:
#
#   Set the bash prompt according to:
#    * the active virtualenv
#    * the branch/status of the current git repository
#    * the return value of the previous command
#    * the fact you just came from Windows and are used to having newlines in
#      your prompts.
