Handsome Git Aliases

Git aliases can make your Git experience simpler, easier, and more familiar.

$ git config --global alias.YourAlias

Add a Git Alias

$ git config --global alias.YourAlias EntireCommand

Example

$ git config --global alias.hi status

This means, instead of typing git status, you just need to type git hi, you will see the results in terminal is the same.

View all Git Aliases setting

$ git config --get-regexp alias

Edit or Remove Git Aliases

In your terminal, just type:

$ git config --global --unset alias.YourAlias

Or

$ vim ~/.gitconfig then find alias to edit / remove.

Or

$ git config --global --edit then find alias to edit / remove.

This is my handsome Git Aliases

$ git config --global alias.co checkout // branch alias

$ git config --global alias.br branch // branch alias

$ git config --global alias.ci commit // commit alias

$ git config --global alias.st status // status alias

$ git config --global alias.log "log --oneline" // show commit histories in one line

$ git config --global alias.alias "config --get-regexp alias" // show all aliases setting

$ git config --global alias.last "log -1 HEAD" // by this way, you can see the last commit easily

$ git config --global alias.visual "!gitk" // run an external command. I use `$ git visual` instead `gitk`

$ git config --global alias.df diff // diff alias

Many thanks to Git Aliases
