Fish style abbreviations
See original GitHub issueDescription of the new feature/enhancement
Powershell doesn’t allow creating an alias called gco that performs git checkout. The fish shell offers a slightly different feature called abbreviations. When you define an abbreviation named gco, writing gco will be replaced by git checkout inside the command prompt whenever you hit enter or space. I think such feature will be a great addition to Powershell

@r-darwish This should be an enhancement to PowerShell engine, instead of in PSReadLine. You are welcome to join the discussion in PowerShell/PowerShell#12962
@lzybkr Sorry for missing your comment. I agree that having this support in PSReadLine may be better as that would enforce the
abbreviationto be an interactive feature only, which is not supported in script execution. I have captured your comment in the corresponding PS issue.
