   same issue, after installing it, Git simply doesn't work for me anymore. It used to. As can be seen in the screenshot, I was expecting git fetch to retrieve the list of remote branches but it's not working as expected so I need a way to revert the changes applied by dotfiles

   @franclin check your colors profile - it's a known problem with the Solarized Dark theme that sometimes it blackens out the text. You may have to tweak the contrast a bit.

   Hi @PaulRBerg I check all that but the reality is that I should have not installed this tool in the first place as it is far too risky. It changes a lot of default without backing them up. So I ended up reinstalling the whole system instead (thanks 👎 )

   The solution to display the git branch in the prompt that I found useful was actually a lot simpler than I thought. I first created ~/.bash_profile file then enter these commands in them:

   # Git branch in prompt.
   parse_git_branch() {
    git branch 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^*]/d' -e 's/* \(.*\)/ [\1]/'
   }
   export PS1="\u@\h \W\[\033[01;33m\]\$(parse_git_branch)\[\033[00m\] $ "

   It is risk free and doesn't alter any built-in or most importantly doesn't install any conflicting package. In the case of Dot files, it's installing another bash and many other files.

   Hoping that my experience will help others. In a nutshell, I wouldn't recommend installing dotfiles at this stage.
