Discussion on: What are your favorite bash aliases?

View post

alias? I use bash files to run commands like alias.

Example:

Create file in ~/bin/ (eg: hello file)
Run sudo chmod +x hello
Type command in hello
Then, if I'll run the command, I type hello (like alias)

And these're my fav:

github

git clone --depth=1 user:pass@github.com/user/$1

upload

git status
git add -A .
git commit -m "upload"
git push

That's a good idea as well! Perhaps a cleaner solution as well. I like aliases because I can add them to my setup bash script for new systems, append them to the .bashrc, source it and I'm good to go! I'll definitely look into your solution though, because that sounds very clean and allows for much more complex workflows as well.
