Git shortcuts

.bashrc

#! /bin/sh
alias gs="git status"
alias gc="git commit"
alias gr="git checkout"
alias ga="git add"
alias gl="git lola"

.gitconfig

[alias]
    st = status
    ci = commit
    br = branch
    co = checkout
    df = diff
    ds = diff --staged
    lg = log -p
    lol = log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
    lola = log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit --all --date=local
    ls = ls-files
    unstage = reset HEAD

    # Show files ignored by git:
    ign = ls-files -o -i --exclude-standard

[core]
    whitespace=fix,-indent-with-non-tab,trailing-space,cr-at-eol

I like this one as a git log replacement:

[alias]
lg = log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr) %C(bold blue)<%an>%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative
... and here is how you can install it on your system:

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