gitin2it

set of aliases to make git actions more intuitive

Installation

I recommend that you clone this repo, then add this

[include]
path = ./gitin2it/gitin2it

to your user's .gitconfig (usually at ~/.gitconfig)

What belongs here?

Git aliases that

• are intuitively, idiomatically named *
• replace commands that have switches...
  • git ignored vs. git ls-files --others --exclude-standard --ignored (show ignored files in repository)
• ... or syntax
  • git back vs. git checkout HEAD~1
• are named after google searches or stack overflow questions
  • "How do I unstage changes that I've changed?" git unstage vs. git reset
• Implement as-of-yet-unimplemented features
  • git diff-stat automatically sizes stat output to terminal width

• Wield the power of shell commands

What doesn't belong here?

• abbrevations
  • git co for git checkout

• Who decides what is intuitive or idiomatic?

I do.
