I use something similar so often that I made myself a shell alias "gl".

Me too. And I got it from here: http://alias.sh/compact-colorized-git-log

Which is almost the same as mentioned in this post.

I do the same for various other git commands, such as git checkout ('gc').

The only problem is that this breaks git tabcomp. Haave you (or anyone else) dealt with this?

I choose a middle approach - rather than making loads of new base commands, I just use the aliases, and only for the really common commands

> git co > git st > git ci

Fellow git aliaser, consider shell aliasing git to g!
