From: SZEDER Gábor <szeder@xxxxxxxxxx>
__git_ps1() runs the '$(git symbolic-ref HEAD)' command substitution
to find out whether we are on a branch and to find out the name of
that branch. This imposes the overhead of fork()ing a subshell and
fork()+exec()ing a git process.
Since HEAD is in most cases a single-line file and the symbolic ref
format is quite simple to recognize and parse, read and parse it using
only bash builtins, thereby sparing all that fork()+exec() overhead.
However, HEAD can also be a symlink symbolic ref (due to
'core.preferSymlinkRefs'), so do this only if HEAD is not a symlink.
