Add the following to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc:

alias ghpr='git push && gh pr create --fill'

Now just run ghpr after you've committed, and now you have a PR!

My (very) opinionated Git conventions. If you follow these, you will be much less likely to create messed up git histories, and your git setup will make much more sense.

A guide on how to setup git commit signing through GPG and GitHub.

Clone a repo with worktrees setup from the start:

mkdir <repo-name>
cd <repo-name>
git clone --bare --filter=blob:none <git-url>
cd <repo-name>.git

Some options to help your sanity:

# always prune on fetch
git config fetch.prune true
# allow `git fetch origin <branch-name>` to work as expected (create a remote ref)
git config remote.origin.fetch '+refs/heads/*:refs/remotes/origin/*'

To create a new branch:

git worktree add ../<branch-name>
cd ../<branch-name>

To copy a remote branch (note that this will only work with the above fetch config set):

git fetch origin <branch-name>
git worktree add ../<branch-name>
cd ../<branch-name>

To create a new branch based on a remote branch:

git worktree add ../<branch-name> -b <branch-name> --no-track origin/dev
cd ../<branch-name>

Here are some quick conventions for good commit messages and pull request titles.
