I started using Git extensively a couple of weeks ago, and I have found myself typing “ls -la” over and over and over during my day. So, I thought, “There’s got to be a better way!” Surely there is a way to create shortcuts in Terminal…
…Well, here it is:

- Close Terminal. Then Reopen Terminal.
- Type la
That’s it!
Thanks to this guy for providing this solution.
