simple-git-prompt

A very simple bash prompt that displays information about the current git repository, the branch name, number of files staged, changed, etc.

Note: Tested only on Windows machines in a Git shell

Note: This prompt is a port of the "Informative and fancy bash prompt for Git users" which you can find here

Installation

First clone this repository to your home directory

cd ~
git clone https://github.com/jzp74/simple-git-prompt.git .simple-git-prompt

# settings for simple-git-prompt
#SIMPLE_GIT_PROMPT_WINDOW_TITLE="Some title"  # Uncomment to set a window title
#SIMPLE_GIT_PROMPT_MAX_PWD_LEN=24             # Uncomment to set a maximum length of current path (PWD). Use 0 to not display $PWD at all
#SIMPLE_GIT_PROMPT_PREFIX="@\h"               # Uncomment to change the standard prefix of this prompt
#SIMPLE_GIT_PROMPT_SUFFIX="-->"               # Uncomment to change the standard postfix of this prompt
