This may or may not be the case for you but I did have a bit of a face-palm issue a while back because I was tinkering with a __git_ps1 bash script and forgot. I was actually getting output from one git command or another and couldn't figure out why until I eventually figured out that the commands that were complaining were used in my __git_ps1 script. This was mainly when I was doing slightly unexpected things (at least as far as __git_ps1 was concerned, e.g during an interactive rebase ). Its probably not your problem but just double check with 'echo "$PS1"' from your shell. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
