Git has a built-in alias mechanism, which is probably what you want. If 
you put in your config file:

[alias]
	xxx = log --abbrev-commit --pretty=online

then you can type "git xxx" and it'll do what you want. Changing the 
default behavior of the basic commands is looked down on because there are 
scripts that use them to get their input, and those scripts have 
particular formats they expect.
