Creating aliases in PowerShell for git commands?

Just created some shortcuts for myself and wanted to share:

Create a PowerShell profile (if you don't already have one):

New-Item -Type file -Path $PROFILE -Force

Open it to edit:

notepad $PROFILE

Add the following functions and aliases:

function Get-GitStatus { & git status $args }
New-Alias -Name s -Value Get-GitStatus
function Set-GitCommit { & git commit -am $args }
New-Alias -Name c -Value Set-GitCommit

When you restart your PowerShell session, you should be able to pass arguments to the aliases as well. e.g.:

c "This is a commit message"

Update:

Here are some more of my frequently-used shortcuts:

function Get-GitStatus { & git status -sb $args }
New-Alias -Name s -Value Get-GitStatus -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitCommit { & git commit -ev $args }
New-Alias -Name c -Value Get-GitCommit -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitAdd { & git add --all $args }
New-Alias -Name ga -Value Get-GitAdd -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitTree { & git log --graph --oneline --decorate $args }
New-Alias -Name t -Value Get-GitTree -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitPush { & git push $args }
New-Alias -Name gps -Value Get-GitPush -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitPull { & git pull $args }
New-Alias -Name gpl -Value Get-GitPull -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitFetch { & git fetch $args }
New-Alias -Name f -Value Get-GitFetch -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitCheckout { & git checkout $args }
New-Alias -Name co -Value Get-GitCheckout -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitBranch { & git branch $args }
New-Alias -Name b -Value Get-GitBranch -Force -Option AllScope
function Get-GitRemote { & git remote -v $args }
New-Alias -Name r -Value Get-GitRemote -Force -Option AllScope

Aligns with mac aliases commands:

function Get-GitCheckout { & git checkout $args }
New-Alias -Name gco -Value Get-GitCheckout
function Get-GitBranch { & git branch $args }
New-Alias -Name gb -Value Get-GitBranch
function Get-GitPull { & git pull $args }
New-Alias -Name gl -Value Get-GitPull

function Get-GitPush { & git pull $args }
New-Alias -Name gp -Value Get-GitPush

function Get-GitCheckoutPreviousBranch { & git checkout - $args}
New-Alias -Name gcop -Value Get-GitCheckoutPreviousBranch

function Open-AddAliases { code $PROFILE }
New-Alias -Name addAliases -Value Open-AddAliases

I created posh-git-alias which you can just add to your PowerShell $PROFILE.

I don't know PowerShell, but you can setup aliases directly in Git.

You need to create a profile.ps1 file put it in a folder call WindowsPowerShell in my documents

Then put in profile.ps1 a line like this:

set-alias wit 'C:\Program Files (x86)\Microsoft Visual Studio 10.0\Common7\IDE\witadmin.exe'

You can create PowerShell profile that autorun when open PowerShell First open PowerShell and create PowerShell profile (If you don't already have one):

New-Item -Type file -Path $PROFILE -Force

This command will create directory in Documents call WindowsPowerShell inside this directory will create file call Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1

If you want to know the full path of Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.ps1 write this command:

$PROFILE

Open it from PowerShell with this command

powershell_ise.exe $PROFILE

And write all commands that you want to alias it for example:

function gn{git init}
# @args you can pass multi arguments for example
# ga fileName1 fileName2 
function add{git add @args}
function commit { git commit -m @args }
function gac{git add .;git commit -m @args}
function gpm{git push origin master}
function pull{git pull origin master}
function gl{git log}
function glo{git log --oneline}
function gch{git checkout @args}

# @args is optional to add argument
function gb{git branch @args}
function gs{git status}
function gd{git diff}

Save it And close PowerShell, Open it again and call alias commands by function name for example initialize git repository write this command:

gn

To add files write this commands

add fileName1

See GIF image

To show content of alias commands write this command:

Get-Content $PROFILE

Maybe it's late for this question, but for anyone who still has similar question, install this powershell module:

PS> Install-Module -Name git-aliases

According to it's description,

A PowerShell module that provide partial Git aliases from Oh My Zsh's git plugin.

If you use PowerShell, then you need to add functions including the commands that you want to create the alias for.

For example, you want to create an alias for git fetch -all, then you need to add the following in the file Microsoft.PowerShell_profile:

function gfa{git fetch --all}

Then if you run gfa in your PowerShell or WindowsTerminal, then git fetch --all will be executed.

Note: To open Microsoft.PowerShell_profile file in your notepad, run notepad $profile in your PowerShell or WindowsTerminal. Or you navigate to C:\Users\YOUR_USER\Documents\WindowsPowerShell to get the file.

Here is a list of common functions:

function gs{git status}
function ga{git add .}
function gfa{git fetch --all}

function grman{git rebase -i main}
function grmas{git rebase -i master}
function grdev{git rebase -i develop}

function gitc{ git commit -m @args }
function gac{git add .;git commit -m @args}
function pushmas{git push origin master}
function pushman{git push origin main}
function pushdev{git push origin develop}

function pullman{git pull origin main}
function pullmas{git pull origin main}
function pulldev{git pull origin develop}

function pull{git pull origin master}
function gl{git log}
function glo{git log --oneline}
function gch{git checkout @args}
function gcn{git checkout -b @args}

function gman{git checkout main}
function gmas{git checkout master}
function gdev{git checkout develop}

function gb{git branch @args}
function gs{git status}
function gd{git diff}

This GitHub Gist is the link to my own Microsoft.PowerShell_profile.

On Windows, I use the following content in a .gitconfig file located in the user home folder:

[alias]
  co = checkout
  ci = commit
  st = status
  sw = switch
  d  = diff
  hist = log --pretty=format:\"%h %ad | %s%d [%an]\" --graph --date=short
  type = cat-file -t
  dump = cat-file -p
