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.
