Hi there Git Community! I've been using the following aliases for a long time: del or delete = branch -D new or create = checkout -b And I feel these are good candidates as an addition into the core git API as they provide an easy way for new starters to understand the creating and deleting of branches - which is arguably one of the most common git operations. In comparison, passing in flags for this purpose for new starters to git, is both hard to remember and not easy or obvious to understand what is going on. >From my understanding, these flags were also meant as a shortcut to do a git branch && git checkout in one operation - effectively being alias flags anyway. So I wanted to reach out to find out what appetite there may be out there to add/change these to be simpler for new starters to git :) Thanks for considering my proposal and happy to discuss any thoughts!
