- The Objective:
- To have git information integrated into my prompt so that I don't waste time establishing a mental context everytime I go to use git.
- The Problem:
- Every existing zsh-git setup I found was a half-baked kludge; either the person who wrote it didn't have a thorough understanding of git, they didn't have a thorough understanding of zsh, or both.
- The Solution:
-
Write a better soultion myself.
My approach is implemented as two separate zsh modules:
- zgitinit
- Handles gathering git information
- prompt_wunjo_setup
- A prompt theme that makes use of the data collected by zgitinit
Because of this flexible approach, to use my prompt all you need do is add 4 lines to your ~/.zshrc.
Here's what it looks like:
