Silly little alias, "git top". [alias] # top 10 top = !sh -c 'git log --oneline|head -10' It shows the top 10 commits. I use it several times every day, to orient myself while flipping between multiple repositories and branches.

Isn't that just 'git log --oneline -10'?

  Indeed, thanks. I've had the alias for years and never thought to optimize it.

Try going a little fancier: alias hist='git log --pretty=format:"%h %ad | %s%d [%an]" --graph --date=short'
