I run the following codes separately as my prompt unsuccessfully in .zshrc. This suggests me that apparently I do not have a program called __git_ps1. It is not in MacPorts.
#1
PROMPT="$(__git_ps1 " \[\033[1;32m\] (%s)\[\033[0m\]")\$"$
#2
PROMPT="$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")\$"$
#3
# Get the name of the branch we are on
git_prompt_info() {
branch_prompt=$(__git_ps1)
if [ -n "$branch_prompt" ]; then
status_icon=$(git_status)
echo $branch_prompt $status_icon
fi
}
# Show character if changes are pending
git_status() {
if current_git_status=$(git status | grep 'added to commit' 2> /dev/null); then
echo "?"
fi
}
autoload -U colors
colors
setopt prompt_subst
PROMPT='
%~%{$fg_bold[black]%}$(git_prompt_info)
? %{$reset_color%}'
How can you get a prompt which shows the name of a Git-branch?
