While not an issue in Zsh, one bummer about using shell aliases in Bash is that auto-completion won't work. That doesn't really matter with an alias for `git status`, but it's annoying for plenty of others.

You can get around it doing the following:

    _completion_loader git  # manually load git completion functions

    alias g='git'
    __git_complete g _git

    alias ga='git add'
    __git_complete ga _git_add
