Being a slow typer, I couldn't get bothered. I have about 30 alias in my bash_profile for git. These are the ones I use most: alias ga='git add' alias gs='git status' alias gc='git commit' alias gls='git ls-files' #lists all tracked files! alias gg='git add -u; git commit -a -m "lazy commit"' # stage and commit everything tracked. So lazy ... The latter I only use for committing non-code. Like my notes in org-mode. I also found it very convenient to have alias eb='emacs ~/.bash_profile' makes me edit my dash_profile almost every day.
