Terminal does not have anything to do with git-branch. If you need to know in which branch you are currently working on then you need to manually type git branch

Good News :

You can modify your terminal settings to make it show you which git branch you are working currently. To do this you need to put some piece of code in a file. Follow the steps below

1. open the file ~/.bashrc (in home folder) with some text editor with root permission and copy-paste the following code in that file (click the link below to see the code snippet)

   ```bash

   Usages:

   - create a file called ~/.promptrc

   - add following in ~/.bashrc

   source ~/.promptrc

   # this will include the source of the file

Content of the file ~/.promptrc

@returns {String}

Eg: master

function parse_git_branch () { git branch 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^]/d' -e 's/ (.*)/\1/' }

RED="[\033[0;31m]" YELLOW="[\033[0;33m]" GREEN="[\033[0;32m]" BLUE="[\033[0;34m]" LIGHT_RED="[\033[1;31m]" LIGHT_GREEN="[\033[1;32m]" WHITE="[\033[1;37m]" LIGHT_GRAY="[\033[0;37m]" NO_COLOR="[\033[0m]"

RUBY_VERSION="\$(~/.rvm/bin/rvm-prompt)"

\w --> working directory

\u --> current user

\h --> Computer name

export PS1="$GREEN\u:$BLUE\w$YELLOW (${RUBY_VERSION} : $(parse_git_branch)) $NO_COLOR$ " ```

1. Restart the terminal or open new tab, you are done!
