To add custom options to a git command, you can use the git config command to set specific configuration settings for your repository. Here's how you can do it:

  1. Add a custom alias for a specific git command, for example, if you want to add a custom option to the git commit command:
1
git config alias.co commit -m "Your custom message here"


  1. Alternatively, you can directly add the custom option to the git command when executing it by adding it after the command. For example, to add a custom option when pushing to a remote repository:
1
git push origin master --option=value


  1. You can also create a custom git command by writing a script with the desired options and saving it in your PATH. This allows you to create more complex custom commands with multiple options.


By using these methods, you can easily add custom options to git commands to suit your specific needs.
