well, not that I asked for the project description, but I see a small
benefit there. The point is not to know what the project is about. You
know, after all you checked it out in the first place. My goal is to
quickly/easily see "what is in this directory".
Perhaps my usage pattern is obscure, but I have something like 40
repositories checked out in different directories, and I sometimes loose
track of what actually is in a certain directory (and in what state). A
simple "ls" is not enough, as some of them look very similar on the top
level. Hence my interest for "git info".
I had that problem too, until I realized that what I really needed was to
clone repos out with the same careful structure we're using on the server,
and then just use \w instead of \W in my $PS1.
