Show full path on OS X terminal / iTerm before the $ prompt

gistfile1.txt

1. Edit ~/.bash_profile and add the following line to show full path before the $ prompt. 
   For example, as user@hostname:path/to/directory$

# show path before the $ prompt 
export PS1='\u@\H:\w$ '

2. Save file and restart terminal or run source command

$ source ~/.bash_profile

On Big Sur it somehow prints the expression:

\u@\H:\w$

Never worked with zsh before. Does zsh use another config file than bash?

I have the same issue

@mirisbowring @KienPM I have faced the same issue.

I helped to me to switch to bash from zsh in system settings: https://stackoverflow.com/a/59439507

Also try (additionally, it is optional) to prompt exec bash and reload terminal.
