Adding git branch to bash prompt on snow leopard
- by crayment
I am using this:
$(__git_ps1 '(%s)')
It works however it does not update when I change directories or checkout a new branch. I also have this alias:
alias reload='. ~/.bash_profile'
Sample run:
user@machine:~/dev/rails$cd git_folder/
user@machine:~/dev/rails/git_folder$reload
user@machine:~/dev/rails/git_folder(test)$git checkout master
Switched to branch 'master'
user@machine:~/dev/rails/git_folder(test)$reload
user@machine:~/dev/rails/git_folder(master)$
As you can see it is being set correctly but only if I reload bash_profile. I have wasted way to much time on this. I am using bash on snow leopard. Please help!
