Hello,
is it allowed add alias '--abandone' for --abort option in git commands
(git am, git rebase, etc.)?
The word 'abort' have too negative meaning in the russian language.
For example, for git am we have three option names for continue
operation:
--continue, -r, --resolved

But that is the english localisation. We do have git in other languages
- maybe not Russian yet, but it would be great and welcome to change that!
('abort' is negative in german, too).

I think it's a bad precedence. We should rather fight option bloat.

I sure the git in any language has the same options. It is not language
specific really.

And my suggest is add more correct word. Definitely, we never can just
change option's name.

By my mind, if we have compatibility names it helps our brain to
operate with command line in more intuitive manner.
