The __git_ps1 function is defined in same script that defines Git's tab completions (contrib/completion/git-completion.bash). Since bash-completion loads completions on-the-fly in newer versions, the __git_ps1 function isn't immediately available in a new shell. How should this be handled? Should users just source git-completion.bash before they redefine $PS1? -Kerrick Staley -- 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
