Displaying Current Git Aliases

Displaying Current Git Aliases

[Tim Visher]

Can git display a list of all of your current aliases like bash's
`alias` command?

Something like:

   git config --list | grep alias

Or without a pipe (so you catch the exit status of git config easily):

	git config --get-regexp ^alias\\.

I guess not directly but:

    git config -l | grep ^alias

In ~/.gitconfig:

  [alias]
        alias = config --get-regexp ^alias\\.

Then you can simply use "git alias" to get list of all of your current
aliases.

But then it shows itself. :)

I have a considerably more insane alias alias that is to my liking:

        # emit an alias if given one, else pretty prints all aliases
        alias       = "! sh -c 'case $# in \
                       0) git config --get-regexp \"^alias\\.\" \
                          | sort | sed \"s/^alias\\.//; s/=/ /\" \
                          | while read n v; do \
                             printf \"%-16s\" \"$n\"; \
                             echo \"$v\" | fmt -sw 63 | sed \"2,$ s/^/\t\t/\" ;\
                          done ;; \
                       1) git config \"alias.$1\" | fmt -sw 78 ;; esac' -"
