Example Bash Aliases File

# This example ".bash_aliases" file provides a set of aliases and functions to
# streamline workflows in an Ansible development environment. It sets environment
# variables for tools like Ansible and Git, defines shortcuts for common commands,
# and includes functions for securely managing Ansible Vault passwords. These
# utilities help with tasks such as activating virtual environments, installing
# Ansible roles and collections, and handling Vault-encrypted files, promoting
# efficiency and best practices in development.
