如何让git配置文件识别〜/ .bashrc中定义的别名？

Question

I put some aliases for launch text editor, so I don't have to type in the full path. However, when I try to use these aliases in git config file. It seems like can't recognize those aliases. Is there any way to achieve this?

Answer 1

I suspect (without bothering to look) that git spawns external commands with something like execv() or /bin/sh/ -c "..." , so you won't get your environment/functions/aliases. If you need that, you need to create an executable shell script:

#!/bin/bash -i
do stuff with your aliases here
