+## Aliases
+
+```ini
+[alias]
+  lg = log --graph --pretty=format:'%Cred%h%Creset -%C(yellow)%d%Creset %s %Cgreen(%cr)%Creset' --abbrev-commit --date=relative
+  lol = log --graph --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit

+
+---
+
+1.  Set a global `.gitignore`:
+
+    ```ini
+    [core]
+      excludesfile = /home/user/.gitignore
+    ```
+
+1.  Delete local branches that have been removed from remote on fetch/pull:
+
+    ```ini
+    [fetch]
+      prune = true
+    ```
+
+1.  Gives you extra info when using Git submodules:
+
+    ```ini
+    [status]
+      submodulesummary = 1
+    ```
+
+## Misc
+
+1. Get a list of Git branches, ordered by most recent commit:
+
+   ```
+   git for-each-ref --sort=-committerdate refs/heads/
+   ```
+
+1. `@` is the same as `HEAD`:
+
+    ```
+    git show @~3
+    ```
+
+1. `-` refers to the branch you were on before the current one.
+   Use it to checkout the previous branch ([source][dash]):
+
+    ```sh
+    % git branch
+      master
+    * rs-zenmode-refactor
+
+    % git checkout master
+
+    % git checkout -
+    ```
+
+1. Delete local branches which have already been merged into master
+   ([source][del-merged]):
+
+    ```
+    git branch --merged master | grep -v "master" | xargs -n 1 git branch -d
+    ```
+
+1.  Delete all stale tracking branches for a remote:
+
+    ```
+    git remote prune origin
+    ```
