#
# Quickly determines the and emits some useful information about the state
# of your current mercurial or git repository. Useful for PS1 prompts.
#
# Design goals:
#  * Useful for both git and mercurial
#  * Portable to both zsh and bash
#  * Portable to both Mac (BSD-based utils) and Linux (GNU-based utils)
#  * As fast as possible given the above constraints (few command invocations)
#  * Avoids invoking git or mercurial, which may be slow on large repositories
#
# To use from zsh:
#
#   NOTE! the single quotes are important; if you use double quotes
#   then the prompt won't change when you chdir or checkout different
#   branches!
#
#   . /path/to/scm-prompt
#   setopt PROMPT_SUBST
#   export PS1='$(_scm_prompt)$USER@%m:%~%% '
#
# To use from bash:
#
#   . /path/to/scm-prompt
#   export PS1="\$(_scm_prompt)\u@\h:\W\$ "
#
#   NOTE! You *EITHER* need to single-quote the whole thing *OR* back-slash
#   the $(...) (as above), but not both. Which one you use depends on if
#   you need the rest of your PS1 to interpolate variables.
#
# You may additionally pass a format-string to the scm_info command. This
# allows you to control the format of the prompt string without interfering
# with the prompt outside of a mercurial or git repository. For example:
#
#   $(_scm_prompt "%s")
#
# The default format string is " (%s)" (note the space)
#
