If you\ndo not prefix the command with a bang it is interpreted as git\ncommand, I use this one to review the changes I made with respect to\norigin:\n\n$ git config alias.new \"log -C -M --reverse -p origin/master..\"\n\n-- \nCheers,\n\nSverre Rabbelier\n"},{"id":"109588","messageId":"gqh89k$tob$1@ger.gmane.org","threadId":"18576","inReplyTo":"loom.20090326T184207-345@post.gmane.org","subject":"Re: Git for collaborative web development","fromName":"Giuseppe Bilotta","fromEmail":"giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com","sentAt":"2009-03-27T00:57:21Z","receivedAt":"2009-03-27T00:57:21Z","isPatch":false,"sender":{"key":"giuseppe.bilotta@gmail.com","avatar":"https://avatars.githubusercontent.com/u/1464?v=4"},"body":"On Thursday 26 March 2009 19:51, Carlo wrote:\n\n> Hi,\n> I'm going to work on a web project with a friend.
