usage

docker run -ti --rm -v ${HOME}:/root -v $(pwd):/git alpine/git <git_command>

For example, if you need clone this repository, you can run

docker run -ti --rm -v ${HOME}:/root -v $(pwd):/git alpine/git clone https://github.com/alpine-docker/git.git

Optional usage 1:

To save your type, add this fuction to ~/.bashrc or ~/.profile

$ cat ~/.profile

...

function git () {
    (docker run -ti --rm -v ${HOME}:/root -v $(pwd):/git alpine/git "$@")
}

...

$ source ~/.profile

for example, if you need clone this repository, with the function you just set, you can run it as local command

git clone https://github.com/alpine-docker/git.git

Optional usage 2:

alias git="docker run -ti --rm -v $(pwd):/git -v $HOME/.ssh:/root/.ssh alpine/git"

NOTES:

• You need redefine (re-run) the alias, when you switch between different repositories
• You need run above alias command only under git repository's root directly.
