Hello, This is a patch for Misc/vcs_info-examples from the ZSH git repo: http://zsh.git.sourceforge.net/git/gitweb.cgi?p=zsh/zsh;a=blob;f=Misc/vcs_info-examples It prevents the display of remote branch if the remote branch has the same name as the local branch (minus the remote, of course). Cheers. --- gitweb.cgi.txt.old 2011-10-19 03:13:31.467973933 -0700 +++ gitweb.cgi.txt 2011-10-19 03:14:05.502458051 -0700 @@ -205,7 +205,7 @@ remote=${$(git rev-parse --verify ${hook_com[branch]}@{upstream} \ --symbolic-full-name 2>/dev/null)/refs\/remotes\/} - if [[ -n ${remote} ]] ; then + if [[ -n ${remote} && ${remote#*/} != ${hook_com[branch]} ]] ; then hook_com[branch]="${hook_com[branch]} [${remote}]" fi } -- If a listener nods his head when you're explaining your program, wake him up.
