Alternatively, if you like to stay close to the git commands themselves (which is very helpful when helping colleagues), use a git shell such as git sh¹. After starting the git shell in the terminal (just git sh for the eponymous program) all command are simply the same as in git, only without git in front of them (so add, push, etc.). Aliases work as expected of course, so st for status, and d for diff are possible too. These type of shells have the added benefit of a status prompt showing the basic git info, such as current branch and number of commits ahead or behind the tracked branch. 1: https://github.com/rtomayko/git-sh
