mkcd() { mkdir -p “$1” && cd “$1”; }
Make a directory and immediately cd into it. I rarely make a directory and not cd into it.
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Linux is a family of open source Unix-like operating systems based on the Linux kernel, an operating system kernel first released on September 17, 1991 by Linus Torvalds. Linux is typically packaged in a Linux distribution (or distro for short).
Distributions include the Linux kernel and supporting system software and libraries, many of which are provided by the GNU Project. Many Linux distributions use the word "Linux" in their name, but the Free Software Foundation uses the name GNU/Linux to emphasize the importance of GNU software, causing some controversy.

mkcd() { mkdir -p “$1” && cd “$1”; }
Make a directory and immediately cd into it. I rarely make a directory and not cd into it.
My app keeps crashing. That's the older version of my alias.
mkcd() { mkdir -p "$1" && cd "$1"; }
alias weather='curl wttr.in'
That is really neat. I never knew I needed that.
alias ll="ls - l"
My most-used, by far, for decades.
For just a second I thought this was Loss
This and alias la="ls -lhA"
In addition to this, I have lat
& las
with -t
& -s
sorting added respectively.
alias ta="tmux attach -t"
I'm always thinking of using tmux for tilling.

alias ..='cd ..'
My variant (u mean "up" in my head)
alias u ='cd ..'
alias uu ='cd ../..'
alias uuu='cd ../../..'
AmigaOS style!
Not exactly an alias but a short script. First, get git-revise which is a replacement for git rebase
, and fzf if for some reason you don't have it yet. Then make a script in your ~/.local/bin
called git-f
or whatever you'd like:
#!/bin/bash
REF=${1:-origin/main} # adjust to your favorite trunk branch name
COMMIT=$(git log --pretty=oneline ${REF}.. \
| fzf --preview "git show -p --stat {+1}" | cut -d' ' -f1)
if [ -n "$COMMIT" ]; then
exec git revise "$COMMIT"
else
exit 1
fi
Now hack away in a branch, make some commits, and at some point you will realize you want to modify an earlier commit. Use git add -p
to add the relevant lines, but then instead of making a fixup commit just type git f
and pick the target commit from the list.

alias mirror=“sudo reflector --verbose --country ‘United States’ --protocol https --latest 15 --sort rate --save /etc/pacman.d/mirrorlist && sudo eos-rankmirrors”
I use this function to launch GUI apps from the shell without occupying that shell or cluttering it with their output:
nown() {
if [ -n "$1" ]
then
nohup $@ &> /dev/null & disown
else
echo "Don't give me a null command dumbass."
fi
}

Interesting, git do support aliases too. "git st" etc What is .load.sh?
I always set these because I've been burned too many times:
Turn on interactive mode for dangerous commands

alias rm='rm -iv'
Here are mine. Sorry for the mouth full, but I think people may benefit from some of these :)

Oh why that?

That's always the best fun
Quite basic but saves me a couple of seconds each time. alias update="sudo apt update && sudo apt upgrade -y && sudo apt autoremove -y && sudo apt autoclean -y"

I don't use aliases. Since I use fish
as a login shell, I use abbreviations. I have a lot of them configured. But I think my favorite one is yeet
which expands to paru -Rcns
.

You should name it alias btw=... to fully embrace our stereotype ;).
