Git Alias

What is Git Alias?

Git Alias is a collection of git version control alias settings that can help you work faster and better. Git Alias provides short aliases such as s for status, command aliases such as chart and churn, lookup aliases such as whois and whatis, workflow aliases such as topic-begin for feature branch development, and more.

Setup

You can use Git Alias various ways:
