By the way, am I the only person who /likes/ having all the git-*

I like git-* for the same reason. But if git potty had aliases for long
commands then git-* commands would become irrelevant. Especially
"git co" would be nice. It even would be faster to type than
git-ch<tab>c<tab>o<tab> ;)
It would indeed, and it should also be fairly trivial. However, adding
short-hands that are identical with cvs and svn but does a totally
different thing (well, not really different, but cvs users will be
surprised) is not necessarily a good thing.
It would be better, imo, to add ambiguity detection for commands that
lacks an exact match. That way "git br" and "git branch" would be
identical and the logic only needs doing once. I'm not terribly excited
about it though, so...
