shell - Get current directory through alias in git-bash (windows) -


this command prints directory name fine:

echo ${pwd##*/} 

this alias in .bashrc not:

alias echodir="echo ${pwd##*/}" 

they both work fine in home directory, after changing directories typing in manually works. alias still prints home folder. understand because git bash works nested shells or - base shell doesn't change directories @ all, surface 1 does.

is there way create alias works expected?

i'm posting answer twalberg put in comments(he gets credit):

as one-off command:

echo "-----updating "${pwd##*/}"-----"

as alias:

alias updating='echo "-----updating "${pwd##*/}"-----"'
