I hope you love these as much as I do. Here are a few of my favorite aliases (ref: man alias):
1. Git Update
Personally, I like to update (commit) my work frequently and often. Many moons ago, when God was still a baby, we used WordPerfect on the mono-chrome Wyse terminal. Too often, our documents were completely lost before completion, and it was always our own damn fault because we hadn't saved our work frequently enough. This brings us back to habit #1 and today. Now we use Git/GitLab to save much of our work (also from a terminal).
To save work (commit) there are 3 commands which perform: 1) add new files, 2) save the state with a message (what you did), and 3) upload to the central repository. While the message is important for collaboration with other team members, it's not necessary for solo work. This macro conserves time, encourages you to save, and includes the relevant info needed (whodunit, hostname, and time of day). We find it informative and time saving.
