Show and hide files with showfiles - hidefiles

printf '''\nalias showfiles="\ndefaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles YES\nkillall -KILL Finder"\n''' >> ~/.bash_profile && printf '''alias hidefiles="\ndefaults write com.apple.finder AppleShowAllFiles NO\nkillall -KILL Finder"\n''' >> ~/.bash_profile && source ~/.bash_profile

Now you can easily hidefiles and showfiles for hidden .gitconfig for instance
