If you manage your Git workflow via the terminal and your terminal is Oh My Zsh , then you’re in for a treat.
Oh My Zsh has a bunch of built-in aliases for Git commands which are an absolute game-changer 🤯
gst = git status # status of your repo and changes
gapa = git add --patch # choose which changes in a file to commit
gaa = git add --all # stage all your changes
gcmsg = git commit -m # commit with a message
gco = git checkout # change to a specific branch
gcb = git checkout -b # create a new branch off the current branch and change to it at the same time
gp = git push # add your changes to the remote repo
gpsup = git push --set-upstream origin $(current_branch) # push a local branch to remote
gl = git pull # obtain the latest changes from the remote repo
gm = git merge # combine various versions of a file or folder
grhh = git reset --hard # undo all your changes
gsta = git stash push # add to your stash
gstp = git stash pop #remove from your stash
See here for the complete list of aliases.
And if you forget what an alias does, just do this which <alias> eg
> which gst
gst: aliased to git status
