## NAME

`git-alias` - Define, search and show aliases

## SYNOPSIS

`git-alias`
`git-alias` <search-pattern>
`git-alias` <alias-name> <command>

## DESCRIPTION

List all aliases, show one alias, or set one (global) alias.

## OPTIONS

<search-pattern>

The pattern used to search aliases.

The name of the alias to create.

<command>

The command for which you are creating an alias.

## EXAMPLES

Defining a new alias:

    last = cat-file commit HEAD

`git-alias` will show all aliases if no argument is given:

    $ git alias
    s = status
    amend = commit --amend
    rank = shortlog -sn --no-merges
    whatis = show -s --pretty='tformat:%h (%s, %ad)' --date=short
    whois = !sh -c 'git log -i -1 --pretty="format:%an <%ae>
