Share example prompt configurations

Something like?

Fork dotfiles https://github.com/JosephEarl/dotfiles and install (which is just a fork of https://github.com/michaeldfallen/dotfiles with a sub-module pointing to a private repo removed and the start of the prompt message added).

Set Terminal profile to monokai and font to Hack (it's slightly different, but close -- this should be selected after installing the dot files with the bootstrap script).

Make sure to include .bashrc in your .bash_profile:

if [ -f $HOME/.bashrc ]; then . $HOME/.bashrc; fi

The prompt used is:

\[\033[1;32m\]→\[\033[0m\] \[\033[1;36m\]$(basename $(pwd))/\[\033[0m\]$(git-radar --bash --fetch)

Yes, unfortunately this seems geared for the Linux terminal and I am on a Mac using the Mac Terminal. Git-Radar is still useful and I managed to get close. The "git:(...)" part does not appear, but the rest is there. Thanks

I'm using OS X & Terminal and the "git:(...)" part appears for me when I'm in a Git repo

[michaeldfallen]

Same here, I'm using OSX, apples built in Terminal (with TotalTerminal wrapping it) and Zsh.

Probably what's happening is your terminal is set up to use a different colour scheme. I use monokai and that has the "bright black" colour set to a dark grey. So I see git:( as a dark grey.

A pull request is currently open to make this configurable, #39, so you'll be able to change the colour soon.

If you need another example on how to integrate git-radar into a prompt take a look at my slimline zsh theme. The git-radar information is obtained asynchronously which makes the prompt very fast even in large git repositories.

Thanks to all, I have it working now.
