Need git aliases?

I’ve used git on many other people’s computers and they never have the shortcuts that make git nimble for me to use. Until just now, I had know idea how those aliases were set. From a cursory reading of the docs, I gathered that you can edit your aliases directly with git config --global -e. For example:

	[merge]
		tool = opendiff
	[core]
		excludesfile = /Users/jeremyweiland/.gitignore
		editor = mate -w
	[alias]
		st = status
		ci = commit
		co = checkout
		br = branch
		lg = log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr)%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative
	[color]
		pager = true
		ui = auto
