.aliases

If you use the terminal on a daily basis, you'll eventually find yourself wanting aliases for your most commonly-used commands. It's incredibly useful to be able to execute your commands with only a few keystrokes that eventually get hardcoded into muscle memory.

This is an easy to install project that contains a growing list of aliases for different frameworks and tools that works on any *nix system.

Using with vagrant

  • clone the repository to a folder of your choice
  • copy .aliases to vagrant shared folders (do not forget to add it to .gitignore as well)
  • edit bash_aliases and replace the line ALIASES_HOME=$HOME with your path in vagrant, e.g. ALIASES_HOME='/vagrant'
  • source bash_aliases from its location whenever you ssh into the vagrant box
