zsh-vcs-prompt

A zsh prompt that displays information about the current vcs(git/svn/hg) repository. In particular the branch name, difference with remote branch, number of files staged, changed, etc.

(an original idea from this olivierverdier/zsh-git-prompt).

Features

  • Displays the various vcs status.
  • Displays the vcs action (merge, rebase, rebase-i, etc).
  • Displays unmerged commits count (to master) (e.g. branch(3) is 3 unmerged commits).
  • Use python scripts (it is a little faster than shell scripts).
  • Formats can be readily customized.
  • It works on bash prompt (if zsh is installed).

About status

Remote status:

  • ↑ n : ahead
  • ↓ n : behind

Local status:

  • ✔ : repository clean
  • ● n : there are n staged files
  • ✖ n : there are n unmerged files
  • ✚ n : there are n changed but unstaged files
  • … n : there are n untracked files
  • ⚑n : there are n stashed
  • branch(n) : there are n unmerged commits to master

Installation

1.Create the directory ~/.zsh if it does not exist (this location is customizable).

$ mkdir ~/.zsh

2.Clone from github

$ cd ~/.zsh
$ git clone git://github.com/yonchu/zsh-vcs-prompt.git

3.Source the file zshrc.sh from your ~/.zshrc config file, and, configure your prompt. So, somewhere in ~/.zshrc, you should have:

source ~/.zsh/zsh-vcs-prompt/zshrc.sh
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_ENABLE_CACHING='true'
RPROMPT='$(vcs_super_info)'

Note that enclosed $(vcs_super_info) in double quotation. If call vcs_super_info in other functions (like hook functions), not set ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_ENABLE_CACHING.

Python or Shell scripts?

By default uses the python script (lib/gitstatus-fast.py). But if you don't want to use the python script, you can use only shell scripts. In that case, you should have in ~/.zshrc:

ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_USING_PYTHON='false'

The shell scripts is more portable than python scripts (as it has no dependencies). However, the python script runs a little faster than the shell scripts. If the python script is not available, it works on shell scripts without the python script automatically. Therefore, you apply the above only when you want to use explicitly shell scripts.

Use on bash

The zsh-vcs-prompt can also be used on bash.

Screenshot

Source the file zshrc.sh from your ~/.bashrc config file, and, configure your prompt in same way as zsh.

if [ -f ~/.zsh/zsh-vcs-prompt/zshrc.sh ]; then
    source ~/.zsh/zsh-vcs-prompt/zshrc.sh 2> /dev/null \
        && PS1="$PS1"'\[\e[1;31m\]$(vcs_super_info)\[\e[0;m\]'
fi

However, unable to colorize the prompt like zsh.

Customizing prompt

You can change the appearance of the prompt.

The variables is defined as follows by default. If you chage it, configures the variables in your ~/.zshrc.

Change the symbols:

## The symbols.
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_AHEAD_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_BEHIND_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_STAGED_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_CONFLICTS_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_UNSTAGED_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_UNTRACKED_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_STASHED_SIGIL=''
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_CLEAN_SIGIL=''

Hide count:

ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_HIDE_COUNT='true'

hide_count

Change the branch which count unmerged commits to:

# Default
#ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_MERGE_BRANCH=master
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_MERGE_BRANCH=develop

If you hide it, set the following:

ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_MERGE_BRANCH=

Format string:

#s : The VCS name (e.g. git svn hg).
#a : The action name (e.g. merge, rebase, rebase_i)
#b : The current branch name.

#c : The ahead status.
#d : The behind status.

#e : The staged status.
#f : The conflicted status.
#g : The unstaged status.
#h : The untracked status.
#i : The stashed status.
#j : The clean status.

# Clean
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_GIT_ACTION_FORMATS+='%{%F{green}%}#j%{%f%}]'

Change the format for other VCS without Action:

## Other VCS without Action.
# VCS name
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_VCS_FORMATS='(%{%B%F{yellow}%}#s%{%f%b%})'
# Branch name
ZSH_VCS_PROMPT_VCS_FORMATS+='[%{%B%F{red}%}#b%{%f%b%}]'

Change the format for other VCS with Action:

## Other VCS with Action.
# VCS name
