How to create an alias composed of many commands?-CodePudding

Commands are:

git checkout master
git remote add upstream [email protected]:minio/console.git
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git rebase upstream/master

What I want is to type one word and get all of them executed

CodePudding user response：

You don't have to do anything special. Just put all the commands in the alias.

alias aliasname='git checkout master
git remote add upstream [email protected]:minio/console.git
git fetch upstream
git checkout master
git rebase upstream/master'

CodePudding user response：

You can define an alias that executes multiple commands, simply by using the ; to separate the comamnds: git checkout master ; git remote ...

But then, consider to simply write a small helper script instead.

CodePudding user response：

What I would do is:

File: ~/.zshrc

Content:

function updateForkedConsoleRepo() {
    git checkout master
    git remote add upstream [email protected]:minio/console.git
    git fetch upstream
    git rebase upstream/master
    echo "git push if all goes well"
}

Now with one word you can execute all your commands:

$ source ~/.zshrc
$ updateForkedConsoleRepo
