Hi all. I'm the author of 0ec7c23c (git-prompt: make upstream state indicator location consistent, 2022-02-27). Sorry I'm a little late jumping in. I was also going to propose something more comprehensive and future-proof than what's there (adding the applicable color (including clear) to all the indicators), but I like Junio's idea better. The only other thing I have to add is that it's probably a good idea to include a comment in the function `__git_ps1_colorize_gitstring` explaining the design so future developers/reviewers know.
