Introduction
If you use Git daily, you know how repetitive some commands can get. Typing git add ., git commit, and git push Doing dozens of times a day slows you down. That’s where our Git Macros Installer comes in — a simple, cross-platform automation script that adds 15 essential Git aliases to your setup.
This tool works on Windows (Git Bash / WSL), Linux, and macOS, helping you code faster and focus on what really matters: building.
What Are Git Macros?
Git macros (also known as Git aliases) are shortcuts that let you replace long or repetitive commands with short, memorable ones. For example:
git acp "message"
…runs three commands in one:
git add . && git commit -m "message" && git push
These macros can automate tasks like branching, fetching, rebasing, and cleaning up your repo.
👉 Learn more about aliases in the official Git documentation.
