From 0f37c125814afc8ad2fa43fecd8b200216ebfab5 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: =?UTF-8?q?SZEDER=20G=C3=A1bor?= Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2013 12:49:19 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] bash prompt: use bash builtins to check for unborn branch for dirty state MIME-Version: 1.0 Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8 Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit When the dirty work tree and index status indicator is enabled, __git_ps1() checks for changes in the index by running 'git diff-index --cached --quiet HEAD --' and looking at its exit code. However, that makes sense only when HEAD points to a valid commit: on an unborn branch the failure of said command would be caused by the invalid HEAD, not by changes in the index. Therefore, __git_ps1() first checks for a valid HEAD by running 'git rev-parse --quiet --verify HEAD'. Since the previous patch we implicitly check HEAD's validity by running 'git rev-parse ... --short HEAD', making the dirty status indicator's 'git rev-parse' check redundant. It's sufficient to check for non-emptyness of the variable holding the abbreviated commit object name, thereby sparing the overhead of fork()+exec()ing a git process.
