How to use git aliases to 10X your workflow
Did you think git config was only for setting your name and email?
You can also use to create shortcut commands, or "aliases" , and improve your git workflow!
Here's the command you'd run in your shell:
git config --global alias.<alias> <cmd>
For example, I have git init --bare" aliased to "git naked"
Some aliases I've seen around that make me feel enlightened:
cm = commit -m
undo = reset HEAD~1
st = status
unstage = reset --soft HEAD^
So that's it folks! Have you any great aliases to share? I'm always looking for more ways to optimize my workflow, so share them here! Convene with you later 🧙🪶
