One that I find myself using probably more than I should is undo:

  # undo the last commit
  undo = reset --soft HEAD^
  redo = reset 'HEAD@{1}'
Another is a quick update method for repos that I'm not contributing to, but might be dirty:

  up = !git fetch && git rebase --autostash FETCH_HEAD
And for those times I forget those aliases I don't use as often:

  # list aliases 
  la = "!git config -l | grep alias | cut -c 7-"

    lol = log --decorate --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit
    auto = !git add --all && git commit -m \"AUTOCOMMIT $(date)\"
    todo = grep TODO

    pu = !"git fetch origin -v; git fetch upstream -v; git merge upstream/master"
