# gt-alias(1)

Create shortcuts for gt commands

## NAME

gt-alias - Create shortcuts for gt commands

## SYNOPSIS

**gt alias \[flags\]**

## DESCRIPTION

Create shortcuts for gt commands.

An alias expands to a gt command with its arguments before gt runs it: after gt alias set il "issue list --label bug", gt il --state all runs gt issue list --label bug --state all. $1, $2 and so on in the expansion take the arguments in that position; other arguments follow the expansion. Aliases never run a shell, and built-in commands always win over an alias of the same name.
