So what do you want to do? Pressing the mouse button over and over again?

I don't claim the git CLI is always logical. But you seem to complain that there is one.

:) e.g. magit is keyboard focused, and a much nicer interface to git than the CLI.

Ok, so I don't know your exact workflow as it could be some weird branch hopping and squashing and reflog breaking weirdness, but:

1. Most terminals have command history, so if you're really typing the same thing over & over & over & over... just use that? 2. Even if that's not the case, bash/batch/powershell scripts to automate things? 3. Most IDEs nowadays have pretty solid git integration so if you're wanting to click things, there's that.

Use a GUI client. There are many of them.

Then set up an alias to do it for you.

bash has a history search feature you can access via control-r.
