How set the git alias to the git. I have searched a git directive below from StackOverflow:

show-branch -a \
| grep '\*' \
| grep -v `git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD` \
| head -n1 \
| sed 's/.*\[\(.*\)\].*/\1/' \
| sed 's/[\^~].*//'

The URL is :

Due to the directive is so long, I want to set an alias for it.

I looked the git document. I can't know how to set the complex directive as the alias.

Maybe use an actual alias, instead of a git one? – evolutionxbox May 22 '18 at 08:49
Would a simple `git config --global alias.alias "insert directive here"` work for you? If you run `git alias` now it will show every alias you set – Mattia Righetti May 22 '18 at 23:45
@Matt95 I set the directive above into the alias. – jiexishede May 23 '18 at 01:55
