Speaking of straw men, this program does more than simple typo substitution. The listed examples include prepending sudo and using git-suggested commands.

Which you can get by typing:

    sudo !!
and git completion is in contrib:

https://github.com/git/git/tree/master/contrib/completion

Not really a strawman is it?

Well, yes it is, because again, I was just giving examples. Look at the list under "how it works" in the readme, and there's plenty of items there that aren't simple substitution. It'd be a lot easier to just 'fuck' for most of those than have to mentally parse what you need to do to 'fix it'.
