To show your active Git branch in your command prompt, you will need to do the following:

• If you are on a Mac, you can add the code shown below to your .bash_profile file.
• If you are on Linux, you will add the code shown below to the end of your .bashrc file.
• If you are on Windows, you probably aren't reading this because Windows provides this behavior by default.
