god parses the available Git commands from the retrieved list (git help) and turns them into an easy-to-type, one or two char format at the execution time.
Shortcuts of commonly used git commands are supported for simplifying the usage and speeding up typing even more.
AUR (god-git)
Installation can be made with a AUR helper tool like Trizen or yay.

Git shortcuts.
Other terminal commands can be executed with adding a '#' character before the command. It's necessary for non-git commands because the god executes all other terminal inputs with git.

Q: So it's an application just to create some shortcuts to git commands? Did you heard of git aliases?
A: The project aims to provide a interactive shell that have built-in shortened Git commands and shorcuts. Benefits of it depends on your workspace, people like to use Git in command line and work with multiple shells can use it as a helper tool. Unlike the git aliases, it only needs one execution and there will be no need for typing 'git' anymore for using git. Here's a screenshot of my workspace while using god in a separate terminal.
- Support adding custom shortcuts.
- Terminal autocomplete feature.
