Bash Profile Settings

These files will make your bash profile look amazing and provide some useful commands.

There are two display options, white/green and red/white. Any custom bash aliases or includes should be moved to a new file ".bash_custom" to prevent them from being overwritten.

New Features

You can now search your bash history. Just start typing the command and hit the up arrow. This requires a .bash_history file that is readable by your user.

The current path and git repo are displayed in a command separator. See example below:

––––––––––––––––––––––––––[ ~/Sites/my_repo [production] ]––––––––––––––––––––––––––
kklein@nacho-console » sudo dd if=/dev/urandom of=/dev/sd0 bs=1M
