oh-my-zsh : concatenate 2 aliases

Question

I try to create a git alias in oh-my-zsh to create and push a new branch in one row:

alias gnb='git checkout -b $@ && git push -u origin $@'

If I type

gnb foo

I have this error :

error: switch `b' requires a value

If I split this alias in 2:

alias gnb='git checkout -b $@'
alias gpb 'git push -u origin $@'

And call them, everything works fine.

What am I doing wrong?

Answer 1

You should use a function as follow :

function gnb {
  git checkout -b $1 && git push -u origin $1
}
