If I want to rename or delete an alias, how do I do that? Do I have to edit .gitconfig?

@limeri You can use --unset, like git config --unset alias.lol.

That doesn't seem to have worked:

$ git config --global alias.lol "log"
$ git config --unset alias.lol
limera@USENLIMERAL3C MINGW64 ~/training/github-games (gh-pages)
$ git config --list

@limeri Let's try git config --global --unset-all alias.lol

[limeri]

That worked. Thanks.
