Thank you for filling out a Git bug report!
Please answer the following questions to help us understand your issue.

What did you do before the bug happened? (Steps to reproduce your issue)
cd subdirectory/

What did you expect to happen? (Expected behavior)
bash prompt would be still active and showing the status of my checkout (possibly even limited to the current subdirectory, but it is not necessary)

What happened instead? (Actual behavior)
Part of the bash prompt related to git (e.g., current branch) evaporates

What's different between what you expected and what actually happened?
I would like to have current branch and status even in subdirectories

Anything else you want to add:

Are you using the prompt from contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh? If so, I
CC'd a couple of folks who have worked recently on that script.

I assume they may find it helpful to know a little more about your
setup, including possibly if you have a bisection where the prompt
stopped working for you when in sub-directories.

Thanks,
Taylor

Unfortunately, I have recently switched from fish (where
everything works right), so I don’t know when exactly the break happened.

Using openSUSE/MicroOS-based system with all the work done in
distrobox containers (with openSUSE/Tumbleweed inside).

Not sure, what else I can say, or how to better debug.

Best,

Matěj

You can help by providing the following:

- What is the "innermost" distro where this happens? Thumbleweed?
  which version?

- Which git version do you have installed? How did you install it?

- How did you install the git-prompt support?

- Which shell do you use? (bash? zsh? something else?)

- How is the (git) prompt set in your shell startup file? (~/.bashrc,
  or ~/.profile, etc). If you don't know exactly, then can you please
  attach your shell startup files?

- Can you provide a sample repository to clone which reproduces the
  issue? for instance, you can pick a small repo from github.

- What are the steps to reproduce the issue? is it enough to "cd"
  into an existing sub-dir at the git dir? or is it only broken
  when creating an unrelated sub-dir and "cd" into it? better yet,
  provide a 1:... 2:... 3:... steps which reproduce the issue for
  you, and which others can try to follow.

I tried the following:

1. Download the latest Thumbleweed snapshot and boot in a VM:
   https://download.opensuse.org/tumbleweed/iso/openSUSE-Tumbleweed-XFCE-Live-x86_64-Snapshot20241022-Media.iso

2. In a terminal (default shell is bash 5.2.37(1)):
   sudo zypper install git  # 2.47.0-1.1
   sudo zypper install bash-git-prompt

3. The above does NOT install git-prompt.sh which is maintained
   together with git at the contrib dir. In its README.md:
   
     This prompt is a port of the "Informative git prompt for zsh"
     which you can find https://github.com/olivierverdier/zsh-git-prompt

    so I did not try to set it up. If you have an issue with that
    package then you should report it to the package maintainer.

4.  Download git-prompt.sh from the git contrib dir:
      curl -o ~/git-prompt.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/refs/tags/v2.47.0/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh
      chmod +x ~/git-prompt.sh

5. Add the following lines at the end of ~/.bashrc :
   
     . ~/git-prompt.sh
     PS1='\w$(__git_ps1)\n\$ '

6. Start a new bash shell or new terminal.

7. Clone a sample repo (/shameless plug) and "cd" into it:
     git clone https://github.com/avih/shlolcat
     cd shlolcat  # the prompt correctly includes "(master)"

9. "cd" into a subdir:
     cd c-lolcat  # the prompt still correctly includes "(master)"

9. Create an arbitrary additional sub-dir and "cd" into it:
     mkdir xxx
     cd xxx  # the prompt still correctly includes "(master)"


So I can't reproduce such issue with git-prompt.sh which is part
of the "git" repo at contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh .

Cheers,
avih

Actually, "sudo zypper install git" does install the correct script
at /usr/share/bash-completion/completions/git-prompt.sh

Additionally, that "git" package adds /etc/bash-completion.d/git-prompt
which does source this script automatically on shell startup, therefore
step 4 (the curl thing) is not required, and git-prompt.sh is already
loaded automatically, and so only one line instead of two should be
added to ~/.bashrc (as a minimal example):

  PS1='\w$(__git_ps1)\n\$ '

The rest is the same. Still can't reproduce it with this script.

Yes, Tumbleweed (actually MicroOS uses Tumbleweed packages as
well), which is a rolling distro and I updated (almost) daily, so
it is hard to say which version.

Using the git-prompt.sh from the package, but it seems to be the same as the upstream one in contrib/

bash with ble.sh (freshly updated, but the problem can be reproduced even without it)

* /etc/bash.bashrc is
  https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/bash.bashrc (the
  standard openSUSE one with the addition of loading
  /etc/profile.d/distrobox_profile.sh)
* /etc/profile is https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/profile
  (git is not mentioned anywhere in /etc/profile.d)
* /etc/bash_completion.d/git-prompt is
  https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/git-prompt (so, yes
  git-prompt may be attempted to be loaded twice)
* /etc/profile.d/distrobox_profile.sh is
  https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/distrobox_profile.sh
* ~/.bashrc is https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/bashrc

Basically any git repository which has more than one
level of directories, I spent most of my time in
https://git.sr.ht/~mcepl/m2crypto, so when I do `cd src` the git
status evaporates.

Yes, just run `cat <(curl -L -s https://mcepl.fedorapeople.org/tmp/typescript)`

>    sudo zypper install bash-git-prompt

I don’t have this package installed at all, using the script from git-core.

>      . ~/git-prompt.sh

Yes, that works:

mitmanek:~ $ export PS1='\w$(__git_ps1)\n\$ '
~
$ ~/repos/m2crypto
cd -- /home/matej/repos/m2crypto
~/repos/m2crypto (master $)
$ cd src
~/repos/m2crypto/src (master $)
$ 

So, the problem is somewhere in my too complicated configuration. Any idea, where?

Thank you for your help so far!

Good. So this probably means there's no issue with that script,
unless you can isolate a specific minimal example (with some config
vars, PS1/PROMPT_COMMAND, etc) which behaves badly.

ble.sh looks pretty not-small, and I'm not familiar with it.

These files load/use ~/.config/dotfiles/osc/osc-prompt.sh which is
not linked or provided, and I'm guessing is either the culprit, or
the issue is how you use it together with __git_ps1, which I can't
help you with.

You may link it in a reply, but I likely don't have the bandwidth
to look into it, though maybe someone else would be able to help.

Or, even better, you should look into it and bisect your config.

For what it's worth, if, with that same Tumbleweed live DVD, with git
installed, I add your ~/.bashrc content to mine (default), and add
this final line:
 
  PS1='\n\w$(__git_ps1)\n\$ '
 
then it does work correctly (with your GIT_PS1_* config vars etc).

But your PS1 is:
 
  export PS1='\h:\W$(__osc_prompt) \$ '

So I'm guessing things go wrong somewhere between __osc_prompt
and __git_ps1 invocation, but I can't tell where.

Anyway, good luck.

It was a bug in one of my scripts, https://github.com/openSUSE/osc/pull/1632/commits/294001c46ea2

Sorry for bothering you.

Ah, makes sense. Nice find, and not a bother at all.

Good catch. That's literally an issue in the one line which exists
between __osc_prompt and the __git_ps1 invocation !

Do let us know if you encounter an actual issue in the future.
