Know the Actual Exact Commands for an Alias
Since I use Dotfiles, which comes bundled with many alias, it is easy to lose track of the exact commands an alias refers to..
This morning, I typed gl
on my zsh bash, thinking it is git log
, but turned out it is git pull
..
2 bash commands
type
will resolve what the alias is for:
$ type gl
$ gl is an alias for git pull
Another command is alias
, which will list all of the current aliases.
