[Updates] A cool .bashrc addition to echo which git branch you are on

[Andrew Stone]

Actually, if you want the working directory echoed too, like this:

~/Desktop/.../MusicPad[master]$

 try:
> =======================



function parse_git_branch ()
{
  git branch --no-color 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^*]/d' -e "s/* \(.*\)/[\1]/"
}

export MYPS='$(echo -n "${PWD/#$HOME/~}" | awk -F "/" '"'"'{if (length($0) > 14) { if (NF>4) print $1 "/" $2 "/.../" $(NF-1) "/" $NF; else if (NF>3) print $1 "/" $2 "/.../" $NF; else print $1 "/.../" $NF; } else print $0;}'"'"')'
PS1='$(eval "echo ${MYPS}")$(parse_git_branch)$ '
