-alias.*::
-	Command aliases for the linkgit:git[1] command wrapper - e.g.
-	after defining `alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD`, the invocation
-	`git last` is equivalent to `git cat-file commit HEAD`. To avoid
-	confusion and troubles with script usage, aliases that
-	hide existing Git commands are ignored. Arguments are split by
-	spaces, the usual shell quoting and escaping is supported.
-	A quote pair or a backslash can be used to quote them.

-Note that the first word of an alias does not necessarily have to be a
-command. It can be a command-line option that will be passed into the
-invocation of `git`. In particular, this is useful when used with `-c`
-to pass in one-time configurations or `-p` to force pagination. For example,
-`loud-rebase = -c commit.verbose=true rebase` can be defined such that
-running `git loud-rebase` would be equivalent to
-`git -c commit.verbose=true rebase`. Also, `ps = -p status` would be a
-helpful alias since `git ps` would paginate the output of `git status`
-where the original command does not.

-If the alias expansion is prefixed with an exclamation point,
-it will be treated as a shell command.  For example, defining
-`alias.new = !gitk --all --not ORIG_HEAD`, the invocation
-`git new` is equivalent to running the shell command
-`gitk --all --not ORIG_HEAD`.  Note that shell commands will be
-executed from the top-level directory of a repository, which may
-not necessarily be the current directory.
-`GIT_PREFIX` is set as returned by running `git rev-parse --show-prefix`
-from the original current directory. See linkgit:git-rev-parse[1].
