It’s less that and more having your muscle memory be completely wrong as soon as you ssh somewhere.
Aliases are ok... but anyone with a bloated vimrc file can tell you how strange it feels to use the defaults. (Seriously, using vim-surround is basically the main reason I still use vim)
EDIT: and typing git commands are a very small part of my workflow, so it seems wasteful to alias them. And I will absolutely never add -A... I’m too paranoid about committing something I didn’t mean to.
I don't think squash merge should exist. The commit message sucks, many times your feature can be good individual changes (valuable outside the feature) it is pretty easy to finalize the order and squash with a rebase --interactive.
My general opinion is very much 'use whatever works best for you'.
For me personally though, aliases like this are equivalent to improving the speed/performance of your car by speeding up how quickly you can get into and out of the car.
For further actions, you may consider blocking this person and/or reporting abuse
We're a place where coders share, stay up-to-date and grow their careers.
This is true. I worked with a guy that refused to use aliases because he thought he would forget the underlying command behind the alias.

add -A
... I’m too paranoid about committing something I didn’t mean to.I don't have many aliases for git commands but seeing
git add -A
has inspired me to add one more to my small list:alias gip='git add ${FILE} -p'
As in:
git add file.rb -p
. The-p
flag tells git that you want to select which individual lines/hunks get committed. It's the scalpel to-A
's mallet.The alias allows me to do it this way:
gip file.rb
SInce i work in feature branches that get squash merged in a few days, I don’t really understand why you would be doing more than one thing at once...

I'm said --fixup isn't listed as as alias.
