List All Git Aliases From gitconfig

Running the git config --list command will show all of the configuration settings you have for git relative to your current location. Though most of these setting probably live in ~/.gitconfig, you may also have some locally specified ones in .git/config. This will grab them all including any alias entries.

We can narrow things down to just alias entries using the --get-regexp flag.

$ git config --get-regexp '^alias\.'

alias.ap add --patch
alias.authors shortlog -s -n -e
alias.co checkout
alias.st status
alias.put push origin HEAD
alias.fixup commit --fixup
alias.squash commit --squash
alias.doff reset HEAD^
alias.add-untracked !git status --porcelain | awk '/\?\?/{ print $2 }' | xargs git add
alias.reset-authors commit --amend --reset-author -CHEAD

I use git doff all the time on feature branches to "pop" the latest commmit onto the working copy. I was trying to remember exactly what the git doff command is and this was an easy way to check.
