🌸 glab-alias — the manual page, but make it bestie 💅

okay so real talk, this is a page from glab(1) — yeah, the whole glab manual situation — and it's the one about aliases. lower-case, comfy, keyboard-saving aliases. let's get into it ✨

🎀 NAME 🎀

glab-alias — create, list, and delete aliases. that's the whole job. three verbs, one icon.

✨ SYNOPSIS ✨

glab alias [command] [flags]

that's it. that's the shape of it. you call glab alias, you maybe hand it a command and some flags, and it does its thing 🫶

💖 DESCRIPTION 💖

so, what's an alias? bestie. an alias is literally just a shortcut for a longer glab command. that's it. that's the tea ☕

the manual gives you two whole reasons to use them, and honestly both ate:

  • saving keystrokes — for the commands you run often, the ones you type like eight times a day. why type the whole thing every time when you could type a lil baby version? 😭
  • composing shell pipelines — you can build pipelines around glab commands using aliases. like, glab glued into your shell plumbing. it's giving main character energy tbh 🔥

no cap, that's the entire description. short, sweet, slays.

👑 OPTIONS INHERITED FROM PARENT COMMANDS 👑

these aren't even glab-alias's own options, they're just vibing down from the parent command. nepotism but make it CLI 💀

  • -h, --help[=false] — show help for this command. that's the whole thing. note the [=false] — that's the default value sitting right there in the flag, living its life. so like, it's off unless you turn it on 🌈

🦋 SEE ALSO 🦋

the friend group, the squad, the whole crew — go read these too:

like the parent, the deleting one, the listing one, and the setting one. that's the whole family tree 🌳💜

💡 tiny note: those (1) numbers are just manpage section numbers, not options. don't try to pass them as flags, bestie, i'm begging 🙈

🧚 sign-off 🧚

this little beauty was auto generated by spf13/cobra — not hand-written by a human, which is honestly so valid of it — and it's dated Nov 2026. so yeah, it's from the future, it's automated, and it still serves 💅✨ bye bestie, go make some aliases 🍓
