This is pretty trivial, but I'm a lazy typist.

Is it possible to alias 'g' to git via git config, instead of via
bash?  If I do a plain bash alias then none of the nice autocompletion
from git-contrib work with 'g'.

No, you'll need to alias 'g' to git in bash, and then if you still
want completion you'll need to also register the compgen to call
_git completion routine.  Its two lines:

       alias g=git
       complete -o default -o nospace -F _git g
