Could we talk to FESCo about allowing the fedora-packager RPM to alter /etc/bashrc to include the settings from https://fedoraproject.org/wiki/Git_Quickref#Display_current_branch_in_bash ?

This would make life a lot easier for developers.

This is not an option for me and this idea does not satisfy my request. I really dislike the idea of blowing up the standard bashrc like openSUSE does nowadays - which makes starting a new bash ugly slow, because all the stuff inside of the bashrc is getting read and executed etc.

If you really want such a bash prompt thing, put a /etc/profile.d/fedora-packager.sh into the fedora-packager script and do it maye there, but never for the default bashrc!

Just committed something that will make this happen. it's not my proudest code, but it works.
