Git prompt for Bash shell
An higly configurable bashrc script to keep track of every change in your repositories. It shows the branch you are in and the status of the repository.
Included in the package you'll find a skeleton for .bash_profile
that autoloads the scripts in your ~/.bashrc.d folder and an autocomplete script for git commands.
I present you the christmas tree configuration in all its glory!
All the colors, paths and prompt elements, are easily configurable.
By default the prompt shows the following informations
- your username
- the hostname
- the complete path you're currently in
- git branch
- one or more circles (●) each of them representing a warning (more on this later)
- eventually a green check (✔), which means the repository is clean
The circles have the following meaning
- green: there are untracked files
- yellow: there are unstaged files
- orange: there are uncommitted files
- red: your repository is either ahead or behind the remote origin (you need to pull or push)
- alert when your repository is not synced with the remote origin
- create different prompts for users and root (root username and # are gonna be in different colors, so you know you're running as root)
- different warnings for repositories that are ahead or behind the remote origin.Maybe an up arrow (↑) when commits are waiting to be pushed and a down one (↓) when you need to pull.
