Aliases don't seem to be working for me; I'm using git 1.5.0-rc4.  Am
I doing something wrong?

<tytso@candygram> {/usr/projects/linux/linux-2.6}  [master]

git version 1.5.0.rc4
<tytso@candygram> {/usr/projects/linux/linux-2.6}  [master]

<tytso@candygram> {/usr/projects/linux/linux-2.6}  [master]

git: 'new' is not a git-command

The most commonly used git commands are:
    add            Add file contents to the changeset to be committed next
    apply          Apply a patch on a git index file and a working tree
    archive        Creates an archive of files from a named tree
	...
