Problem / Steps to reproduce

I've recorded this asciinema here in order to see behavior. I'm using zplug, but I don't quite figure out why forgit is not available...

There is no plain command forgit. You have to use it either via the git subcommand git forgit or via the shell aliases, like described in the documentation.

Ohhh... I'm really a newbie. I don0t quite figure out which is the magic behind. I mean, hw is possible that adding a directory on PATH, git picks them as subcomands? I neither understand aliases tweaks. Some ideas in order to understand it?

That's a feature of git:

See the git documentation on aliases:
