A while ago I made a tiny function in my ~/.zshrc to download a video from the link in my clipboard. I use this nearly every day to share videos with people without forcing them to watch it on whatever site I found it. What's a script/alias that you use a lot?

# Download clipboard to tmp with yt-dlp
tmpv() {
  cd /tmp/ && yt-dlp "$(wl-paste)"
}

in my .gitconfig i have

[alias]
	glg = log --oneline --decorate --all --graph

This allows me to get a quick overview over all branches with pushes that are recent enough for most cases.

    I was unfamiliar with the decorate flag, but I can't see any difference after trying.

    I will say this is one command I absolutely refuse to create an alias for.

    I have force committed to memory the command: git log --graph --remotes --all (and the variation with the --oneline flag appended to the end if needed) so I can use it anywhere.

    It's the one command I can't live without.
