Git status on bash prompt in technicolor

bash-git-prompt: Informative git prompt for bash and fish

https://github.com/magicmonty/bash-git-prompt

Project's complete git status (branch name, difference with remote branch, number of files staged, changed, untracked, etc...) displayed on your command prompt.

My shell right now:

Available symbols:

• Local Status Symbols
  • ✔: repository clean
  • ●n: there are n staged files
  • ✖n: there are n unmerged files
  • ✚n: there are n changed but unstaged files
  • …n: there are n untracked files
  • ⚑n: there are n stash entries
• Branch Tracking Symbols
  • ↑n: ahead of remote by n commits
  • ↓n: behind remote by n commits
  • ↓m↑n: branches diverged, other by m commits, yours by n commits

Now that I know it, I would never come back to an "uninformative" prompt!

P.S.: If you're a zsh user, have a look at the original zsh version
