Hi,
I've been rooting around the "git-config" man page as well as the "git-status" man page, but couldn't find the following, which suggests it's not (yet) possible.
I'm looking for a way to make the "-sb" options to git-status the default somehow.  That is, I would like the short form of git-status to be the default when typing in "git status".  I appreciate I am able to do this in an indirect way using aliases, but this is slightly suboptimal for me.
If this isn't possible directly, would someone mind considering this a feature request?
Out of interest, would this be done via the git-config system, most likely?
Thanks kindly,
Jason
