Helpers

checkout-main

Checkout the main branch. Many projects have migrated from master to main as the main branch name, so this switch to whatever is the main branch in the current repository

# with git aliases setup
git main

rebase-all

Rebase all the other branches on top of the main branch. When I work on multiple feature branches locally I like to rebase all of them onto main frequently.
