<p>Shell aliases are a good way to increase productivity by shortening long commands, adding additional options to existing ones or creating new ones that even combine multiple commands.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Common aliases are <code>g</code> for <code>git</code>, <code>gs</code> for <code>git status</code> and <code>dr</code> for <code>drush</code>, but they will be different for each person depending on what tools they use and what commands they type often.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Whilst aliases are great for personal productivity, there are times I'd suggest not using them.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>If you're giving a demo as part of a presentation or working in a pair or mob, either use the full commands or explain what custom aliases or functions you're running, what they do, and how they differ from the default functionality.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>I recently watched a video where someone was using a <code>gc</code> command.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It could have been an alias for <code>git clone</code>, <code>git checkout</code>, <code>git commit</code> or <code>git cherry-pick</code> - just to name a few options.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>It could have been something else altogether.</p>
|
|
|
|
<p>Another approach I use is to have aliases auto-expand and show the full command. This makes it possible for others to see the commands being executed and reminds you, too.</p>
