# Get the current branch name (not so useful in itself, but used in
# other aliases)
branch-name = !git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD

# Push the current branch to the remote "origin", and set it to track
# the upstream branch
publish = !git push -u origin $(git branch-name)
force-publish = !git push -u -f origin $(git branch-name)

# Create new branches
new-feature = "!f() { git checkout -b feature/$1; }; f" # Create a new feature branch
