NOTE:

You will need to set up your terminal to use a patched powerline font so the characters in the prompt will display correctly.

You can get pick a font from here: https://github.com/powerline/fonts

Adding fluent-git prompt to remote machines (bash)

if you want this prompt to be available on machines you ssh into you will need to copy the .prompt file to the server.

  1. create alias in .bash_aliases
# when using -P arg: copy .bashrc-ssh file and do ssh else just do ssh
__ssh(){
   [[ $@ == *'-P'* ]] && echo "Copying bash profile for Fluent-git Prompt" && scp -q -o LogLevel=QUIET $HOME/.prompt $1:/home/$USER/.bashrc
  
   /usr/bin/ssh $@
}

alias ssh="__ssh"
  1. Restart shell or source .bash_aliases
source $HOME./bash_aliases

once those steps are done next time you ssh with -P arg it will copy over the .prompt to the remote server as your new .bashrc which contains the new prompt

example:

ssh bastion -P
