git-augmented PS1 for BASH
git-ps1 - git-augmented PS1 for BASH
To use, modify your PS1 variable (e.g. in ~/.bashrc) to include the script: PS1="$PS1\$($( cat git-ps1.sh ))"
This script produces output in a number of different colors. To ensure the prompt operates correctly, non-printable characters must be escaped ([]). However, these characters are not recognized when output from an external script. Therefore, the script must be inserted directly into the PS1 string, where echoing the escape sequence will produce the intended result.
All configuration is done via GITPS1_* environment variables.
