some options & shortcuts to make git branch management simple and sane

Run these once to setup git options:

git config --global push.default current
git config --global merge.defaultToUpstream true
git config --global branch.autosetupmerge true
git config --global branch.autosetuprebase remote
git config --global alias.cb 'checkout -b'
git config --global alias.ps 'push -u'
git config --global alias.pl '!git fetch -p && git rebase'

Use them like this:
