Make git interactive rebase say "p" instead of "pick"?

Viewed 110

This is a minor annoyance. When I do git rebase -i origin/master, it says "pick" and I have to press backspace 4 times to delete it and change it to something else (or learn a keyboard shortcut). Is there a way to make it just say "p"? I'm using a git alias for rebasing, so I can just add it there.

Since git 2.16 a few months after this question was asked, there's config option rebase.abbreviateCommands for this.

$ git config --global rebase.abbreviateCommands true
