alias gs='git status '

alias gk='gitk --all&'
alias gx='gitx --all'

To use these aliases:

Paste them into your ~/.bash_profile file. (If you don't have such a file, create it).
Run . ~/.bash_profile on the console to force your system to reload ~/.bash_profile, thus picking up your new aliases. You'll need to do this for each tab you have open if you want to use the aliases there. (But for new tabs you open, you don't need to reload ~/.bash_profile.)
