# Git kata: Aliases

While working, we tend to write a lot of commands. This can get tedious, especially when the commands are rather long. Git allows you to create an alias for commands, dramatically shortening the time spent typing them.

Aliases are stored in your git config and can thus be global or local. Global config is tied to your user, while local config lives inside a specific repository.
