One git life hack I adopted is to sign my commits with an SSH key that is stored in 1Password. Anytime a tool like git or vs code (with git under the hood) wants to sign commits, fetch/pull/push a remote, or clone a repo I get a nice pop up from 1P which prompts for TouchID on my macbook. My SSH keys don't not live on my machine as a result. This also works with SSH agent forwarding if you develop inside a VM or remote machine.
Trusting your keys to someone else is already a terrible idea. Anything increasing the importance of those keys is doubling down. Please keep these ideas to yourself.
I'm generally addicted to the oh-my-zsh git plugin aliases[1]. Mostly
gswm (git switch main), gswc (git switch --create), gpf (git push --force-with-lease), gcam (git commit all --message), gcan! (git commit all --amend --no-edit), grbm (git rebase main), grbc (git rebase --continue), grba (git rebase --abort)
gwip (git add -A; git rm $(git ls-files --deleted) 2> /dev/null; git commit --no-verify --no-gpg-sign --message "--wip-- [skip ci]") is kinda useful when I want an actual commit before I change branches to do something else (I use this
more often than stashing.
I also am a fan of git-brv from git extras (list branches verbose sorted by date - with the option to sort reverse so the last modified branch is the last one on your terminal)
Really cool, here's mine [0] that's slightly longer. I also have a bunch of other stuff that you may like.
I also have a few handy aliases for commands I never remember [1]. Don't need to have shortcuts like `git co` and others, because I use CMD + R with fzf to find what I need.
There's a bug in here: some git git commands will fail if you are in a subdirectory; i.e. git git add foo, because the behavior of ! Is to run those from the git root. My solution is:

And also git-trim - clean up merged branches
