Any thoughts on this?

I have found this to be a useful feature; especially when using
msysGit in a Windows CMD shell. Specifically because a CMD shell
provides no ability for any sort of "git-completion.bash" prompt. By
highlighting the current branch name, the colouring has helped to
quickly identify what the current branch is.
