Git Aliases are AWESOME
When I was first programming professionally, I had a really hard time learning all the git commands. I kept a huge notebook of useful things, and later learned from Elan Kugelmass that I could store them in code as aliases. Here are some of my favourites.
To use these in every session, put them in your .bashrc or .zshrc or whatever.
Git Aliases - for the win!
alias gst='git status'
alias gl='git log'
alias gco='git checkout'
alias gcob='git checkout -b'
alias gpb='git push origin $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)' # pushes to current branch
alias gpbf='git push -f origin $(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)' # force pushes to current branch
alias gfrh='git fetch && git reset --hard origin/master'
alias grh='git reset --hard origin/master'
alias gcam='git add . && git commit -m' #must include commit message
alias grom='git fetch && git rebase origin/master'
alias gcrh='git checkout master && git fetch && git reset --hard origin/master'
