Dev10x:git-alias-setup — Git Alias Configuration
Configures global git aliases that wrap $(git merge-base ...) subshells.
Without these aliases, commands like git log $(git merge-base develop HEAD)..HEAD
trigger extra permission prompts because the $() substitution shifts
the Bash command prefix.
Orchestration
This skill follows references/task-orchestration.md patterns.
Create a task at invocation, mark completed when done:
REQUIRED: Create a task at invocation. Execute at startup:
TaskCreate(subject="Configure git aliases", activeForm="Configuring aliases")
Mark completed when done: TaskUpdate(taskId, status="completed")
Usage
Run the setup script:
${CLAUDE_PLUGIN_ROOT}/skills/git-alias-setup/scripts/git-alias-setup.sh
Aliases Configured
git nopager / git nocolor are the sanctioned non-paging / non-color
reads — use them instead of the git -c core.pager=cat <verb> and
git -c color.ui=never <verb> prefixes that DX007 blocks (the -c <kv>
prefix shifts the matched command string, GH-488 S19).
Each base branch gets three comparison aliases ({base}-log, {base}-diff,
{base}-rebase) plus a non-interactive autosquash alias (autosquash-{base}).
| Alias | Equivalent |
|---|
git nopager <verb> | git --no-pager <verb> (non-paging read; matches Bash(git nopager:*)) |
git nocolor <verb> | git -c color.ui=never <verb> (non-color read; matches Bash(git nocolor:*)) |
git develop-log | git log --oneline $(git merge-base develop HEAD)..HEAD |

git autosquash-main | GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=true git rebase -i --autosquash $(git merge-base origin/main HEAD) |
git master-log | git log --oneline $(git merge-base master HEAD)..HEAD |
git master-diff | git diff $(git merge-base master HEAD)..HEAD |
git master-rebase | git rebase -i --autosquash $(git merge-base master HEAD) |
git autosquash-master | GIT_SEQUENCE_EDITOR=true git rebase -i --autosquash $(git merge-base origin/master HEAD) |
When to Use
The session start hook checks for these aliases automatically.
If they are missing, it will suggest running this skill.
After setup, use git {base}-log instead of the full subshell form
in all git operations to avoid permission friction.
Scope
Aliases are set globally (--global) so they persist across all
repositories and sessions.
