Why type out `git status`? I use `gst`, and lots of other great aliases provided by the [oh-my-zsh git plugin]( https://github.com/robbyrussell/oh-my-zsh/blob/master/plugin... )

Why type 'gst'? I use C-x g, which is bound to magit-status:-)

Somewhat more seriously, I haven't had to worry about typing 'git git' because I haven't typed 'git' on a daily basis in years. I think I've probably typed it once in the last month.

I do the same with man instead (even though I only used that program like 50 times the last year) … it even happens in any other program where you can input text …

+1, what are you all looking at when typing git over and over again?

I just type git (or more commonly ls/cd) once on auto pilot because I'm at a terminal then without thinking about it hard I'll type it in consciously because that's why I'm at a terminal. It doesn't even involve looking away

I do. And I also write "vim vim thefile.txt" and stuff like that. Finally I've written a small shell function that corrects "gi tpull" to "git pull", because that happens at least once a day.

I always typed rebnoot, so I patched Netbsd to allow rebnoot. Then I patched it still so it would say, "Rebnooting". Fun times.
