The latter half of __git_ps1 is already fairly nice; w/i/s/u/c/p and friends can serve as the basis of such an abstraction, even though r does want to be separated further. I tried the GIT_PS1_SHOW* variables several times, but every time I did so, I eventually had to give up because I simply couldn't read and/or remember what */+#/$/% line noises meant. If we had a custom "collect these pieces and form the final presentation" mechanism, I could easily replace these with mnemonic letters that can be more easily memorable. -- 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
