`git fast-import` comes close but isn't really it.

We have a precedent of aliases how `git remote rm` is aliased to
`git remote remove`. Speaking of which, I'd also like an alias from
`git remote mv` to `git remote rename`.

Yes, I run into this once a week. `git-ls-files`, `git-ls-remote`, and
`git ls-tree` misleadingly imply that Git commonly writes "list" as
"ls". I'm accustomed to `npm ls` being accepted, and even `ip link ls`
ignores the extra subcommand. I perceive a command line convention to
alias subcommands to coreutils abbreviations e.g. `git rm`/
`docker container rm`/`docker container cp`.
