When using git, it is a common requirement to be able to get a log of all the commits that you have done or some one else has done. I find the git --committer a little long to type in and use every time, with a little bash-foo you can have simple aliases like "git me" and "git wholog " to do the same. The changes for this would be :
$HOME/bin/git
#!/bin/bash
if [ $# -gt 0 ]; then
if [ "$1" == "me" ]; then
exec git log --committer='Satish'
elif [ "$1" == "wholog" ]; then
if [ $# -lt 2 ]; then
echo "usage: git wholog"
exit 1
fi
exec git log --committer=$2
else
exec git $@
fi
fi
$HOME/.bashrc
Run "source ~/.bashrc" and you are all set to go.
In retrospect, this could have been done much more neatly with "git config --global alias.xxxx".
$HOME/bin/git
#!/bin/bash
if [ $# -gt 0 ]; then
if [ "$1" == "me" ]; then
exec git log --committer='Satish'
elif [ "$1" == "wholog" ]; then
if [ $# -lt 2 ]; then
echo "usage: git wholog
exit 1
fi
exec git log --committer=$2
else
exec git $@
fi
fi
$HOME/.bashrc
alias git='~/bin/git`
Run "source ~/.bashrc" and you are all set to go.
