I have an alias 'gr = log --oneline --abbrev-commit --all --graph --decorate --color' and I would like to be able to sometimes exclude a branch, so call it with: $ git gr --exclude=pattern

This does not work, though. Also does not work without the alias and typing the complete command by hand. Apparently the --exclude must be put before the --all to take effect.

May I ask to change that behavior and allow to put the --exclude at the end of the alias?
