.gitconfig alias function call

Question

I have defined the following alias in my .gitconfig:

[alias]
    teamcity = ! tc

tc is a shell function I defined in my .bashrc file. For some reason, I get the following error:

[aafghani-03:~/git/workday amirafghani(master)]$ git teamcity
 tc: tc: command not found

Anyone know what I can do to solve this? I'm trying to keep the function in my .bashrc file if possible.

Answer 1

Make it like so

git config alias.teamcity '!bash -ic tc'

_{This won't work when the alias is defined outside the bash startup files. But you clearly state it's in .bashrc, so you're good}
