From: SZEDER Gábor Date: Mon, 24 Jun 2013 16:39:24 GMT Subject: [PATCHv3 14/16] bash prompt: avoid command substitution when checking for untracked files Message-ID: <1372091966-19315-15-git-send-email-szeder@ira.uka.de> In-Reply-To: <1372091966-19315-1-git-send-email-szeder@ira.uka.de> When enabled, the bash prompt can indicate the presence of untracked files with a '%' sign. __git_ps1() checks for untracked files by running the '$(git ls-files --others --exclude-standard)' command substitution, and displays the indicator when there is no output. Avoid this command substitution by additionally passing '--error-unmatch *', and checking the command's return value.
