@vuon9, I really liked your functions to shorten the directory path in the prompt.
However, since you defined the colors without the closing brackets, I found that whenever I brought back the previous command and tried to edit the command, I could not go back to the beginning of the line. There were a few dangling characters padding the left side of the command.
To fix that issue, I combined the prompt at https://gist.github.com/justintv/168835#gistcomment-3554316 from @cheesits456, replacing Nerd font characters with available emoji icons, to arrive at my prompt as below.

@nononsensetekkie oh wow, I got your point. I love the improvement too!!!
This is for Ubuntu but probably will work for other distros that use the DejaVuMono.ttf font as the default.
This is for those that don't want to fiddle with changing fonts, suggest this:

I created my own version for displaying the git branch in prompt starting from @vankasteelj reply (wrote on Mar 7, 2016).
It is a simple solution that includes branch status color. Take a look:
parse_git_bg() {

echo -e "\033[0;31m"
else
echo -e "\033[0;32m"

Probably the most rich solution I found so far: https://github.com/diogocavilha/fancy-git
I would like to see my python virtual environment (venv) as well, as it is usually the case when using MINGW64-git-bash.
So previously, the venv "projectname-venv" was shown in parentheses on the left, but after applying some fancy PS1-command to change the style, coloring and make the current git-branch appear on the right, the venv is missing afterwards.
(projectname-venv) andylu@hd1pcms0347:/mnt/c/Users/username/Projects/projectname$
PS1='\[\033[0;32m\]\u\[\033[0;36m\] @ \[\033[0;36m\]\h \w\[\033[0;32m\]$(__git_ps1)\n\[\033[0;32m\]└─\[\033[0;32m\] \$\[\033[0;32m\] ▶\[\033[0m\] '
andylu @ hd1pcms0347 /mnt/c/Users/username/Projects/projectname (feature/story-43052-dev)
└─ $ ▶ ls
I'd like to have a PS1-command including the venv.
@Lulalaby You need to set the terminal font to a nerd font (patched fonts that replace unused characters with different icons). You can get nerd fonts from https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads. The one I'm using is FantasqueSansMono
thanks!
I just recently started using this and works perfectly.

This will not have () if there is no branch found.
And it will write with a () if there is a branch.
Optimization wrt slow prompt rendering :
How to make the prompt display INSTANTLY, whatever the complexity of the git state computation ?
-> by NOT performing any git state computation, UNLESS the working directory has changed, OR git command was run.
PROMPT_COMMAND='history1=`history 1`;
if [[ $PREVIOUS_PWD != $PWD || ( $history1 == *" git "* && $history1 != $PREVIOUS_CMD ) ]];
then GITBRANCH=`__git_ps1`; # or whatever git state computation commands
fi;
PREVIOUS_PWD=$PWD; PREVIOUS_CMD=$history1;'
PS1='\[\033[32m\]\u@\h \[\033[33m\]\w\[\033[36m\]$GITBRANCH\[\033[0m\]\n$ '
# or whatever prompt rendering, as long as it embeds $GITBRANCH which has been conditionally computed above
Could any of you share the fonts you are using in your terminals? Especially the ones with the file and folder icons?
-> by NOT performing any git state computation, when the working directory has NOT changed.
But then the prompt doesn't change when you switch branches.
-> by NOT performing any git state computation, when the working directory has NOT changed.
But then the prompt doesn't change when you switch branches.
You're correct.
So let's improve & rephrase the optimization :
"-> by NOT performing any git state computation, UNLESS the working directory has changed, OR git command was run."
I updated my original proposed solution accordingly.
I created my own version for displaying the git branch in prompt starting from @vankasteelj reply (wrote on Mar 7, 2016).
It is a simple solution that includes branch status color. Take a look:
parse_git_bg() { if [[ $(git status -s 2> /dev/null) ]]; then echo -e "\033[0;31m" else echo -e "\033[0;32m" fi } PS1='\[\033[0;32m\]\[\033[0m\033[0;32m\]\u\[\033[0;34m\]@\[\033[0;34m\]\h \w\[$(parse_git_bg)\]$(__git_ps1)\n\[\033[0;32m\]\$\[\033[0m\]
Based. Thanks.

he11 yeah! This color scheme is hands down the best on the internet. No contest. If this was mortal kombat this color code whispers "finish them"
@stealthman22 I just realized I never actually gave a proper answer to your question, sorry :P Nerd Font is a project that makes patched versions of popular fonts, replacing a ton of unused characters with icons - you can download one from https://www.nerdfonts.com/font-downloads, then put the ttf file in
~/.fonts
, then set it as your terminal's font - once that's done, the icons will show up properly.As for what they represent, I'll go left to right. The one that looks like a purple
E
becomes a filled left angle bracket once you apply a nerd font. Next to that is my OS icon - if you run something other than Arch, you can search your OS at https://www.nerdfonts.com/cheat-sheet and copy/paste the character into your.bashrc
file in place of the Arch icon. After the username there's a filled right angle bracket, then your current directory in plaintext, then another filled right angle bracket. After that is a folder icon, then a number equal to the number of folders in your current directory. Then there's a file icon and a link icon, both with numbers beside them, which represent the number of files and symbolic links in your current directory, respectively. If you're in a git directory it'll show a git branch icon and print the name of your current branch. The rest of the icons from the nerd font are just more of the shaped icons for styling.Here's a screenshot that shows the relation between the numbers and the types of files in the current directory:
Hope this helps <3
