What are your favorite Git configuration settings which make your life easy while working with Git?

---

Best one I have was picked up off Scott Chacon from a talk he gave:

[alias]
    lol = log --pretty=oneline --abbrev-commit --graph --decorate

I get excited every time I type git lol.

---

The aliases I mention in Trimming GIT Checkins (and the fixup! action from the recent Git1.7.0):

[alias]
    fixup = !sh -c 'git commit -m \"fixup! $(git log -1 --format='\\''%s'\\'' $@)\"' -
    squash = !sh -c 'git commit -m \"squash! $(git log -1 --format='\\''%s'\\'' $@)\"' 

, really help me to commit very often even though I am in the middle of one task, allowing me to finish it with one coherent commit at the end (instead of too many small intermediate commits).
Not exactly "fun", but very useful.

I use:

[color]
    ui = auto

It makes diffs and things pretty. :-)

---

alias gs='git status'
alias ga='git add .'
alias gc='git commit -m'

This is 80% of the typing I do in git on any given day. I know I can combine the last two aliases with the -am flag, but it's nice to have the separated, that way I can check the status of the index before I commit.
