When git repository is very big (lots of submodules and submodules of submodules) running
git status
is very slow. Recently I've discovered a project https://github.com/romkatv/gitstatus which claims to be 10x baster thangit status
. And in fact it is (tested by myself on ~20GB repo, with many many number of files and submodules).Unfortunately the
gitstatusd
is not a simple replacement forgit status
. It can be run as a daemon process which can be used for querying git status of given repository, so direct integration in liquidpromp would be required.Description
It would be nice to be able to switch from
git status
togitstatusd
if desired (or maybe automatically switch togitstatusd
if executable is available).How will this be useful?
It will improved responsiveness of liquidprompt when browsing git repository (especially big ones).
Example prompt
The prompt should stay as it is right now.
