-# This is an implementation of powerline with git support.
-# The main feature is it being asynchronous: git status is updated in parallel.
-# Despite all the hours spent I have on this I am not going to use this atrocity.
-# But it's sorta funny to keep this around.

-# I see now why common powerline prompts are usually not implemented in shell.
