FWIW, I don't like 2, I don't like the irregularity in the invocation:

  $ git branch
  * master
  $ git BRANCH
  git: 'BRANCH' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
  $ git config alias.br 'branch -v'
  $ git br
  * master 51c785c initial
  $ git BR
  * master 51c785c initial

There is also this:

  $ git branch
  * master
  $ git BRANCH
  git: 'BRANCH' is not a git command. See 'git --help'.
  $ git config alias.branch 'branch -v'
  $ git branch
  * master
  $ git BRANCH
  * master 51c785c initial
