clink show git branch

show_git_branch.lua

function show_git_branch()
	for line in io.popen("git branch 2>nul"):lines() do
		local m = line:match("%* (.+)$")
		local b = "\x1b[32;22;49m".."("..m..")".."\x1b[39;22;49m"
		if m then
			clink.prompt.value = clink.prompt.value:gsub(">"," "..b.." >")
			break
		end
	end
	return false
end

clink.prompt.register_filter(show_git_branch, 50)

this need a small doc to how to install

@zodman Go to your clink installation dir and find clink.lua, then paste this code at the bottom.

@zodman Nice work. For me a small modification was necessary because I was running into the following issue:

clink.lua:3435: attempt to concatenate local 'm' (a nil value)

I think it should be (at least that works for me):

function show_git_branch()
	for line in io.popen("git branch 2>nul"):lines() do
		local m = line:match("%* (.+)$")
		if m then
			local b = "\x1b[32;22;49m".."("..m..")".."\x1b[39;22;49m"
			clink.prompt.value = clink.prompt.value:gsub(">"," "..b.." >")
			break
		end
	end
	return false
end

clink.prompt.register_filter(show_git_branch, 50)

@keocra your code works!
