The Best Git aliases to put in your .gitconfig file - Git alias I use the most is snapshot, which can even take argument (description).
# Download free cheatsheets and other materials from https://DevOps.Broker/free-materials
#
# Put this file in your home directory: ~/.gitconfig.aliases
#
# Include this in your own .gitconfig by using the
# [include] directive with the path to this file
#
# [include]
# path = ~/.gitconfig.aliases
#
# If you don't have any existing includes, you can add this via the following command
#
# git config --global include.path ~/.gitconfig.aliases
#
# Feel free to PR your favourite aliases to this file and of course give it a star if you like it :)
