+<code>git co origin main</code>
+==== Bash Aliases ====
+Mike Rylander suggests using bash aliases so you can skip typing ''git'':
+<code>
+# git-related contents of miker's ~/.bash_aliases
+alias branch='git branch'
+alias ci='git commit'
+alias co='git checkout'
+alias dif='git diff'
+alias fetch='git fetch'
+alias lg='git log --pretty=oneline'
+alias pick='git cherry-pick'
+alias pull='git pull'
+alias push='git push'
+alias stash='git stash'
+alias status='git status'
+alias wt='git worktree'
+</code>
+With these bash aliases in place, you would check out main using:
+<code>co origin main</code>
