Shows incorrect 'dirty' indication for Git repository

[purezen]

The prompt was working as intended since long. But lately, it's showing the * indication for clean repositories too. Behaviour is recurring even on a fresh OS install.

Details: OS: Mac OS Sierra. Was also happening on El Capitan recently.

@purezen It happens, because script tries to find substring working directory clean in git status output. This text was returned in git v1.9.1, but now git v2.10.1 returns working tree clean.

You can replace text in your .bash_profile: https://github.com/barryclark/bashstrap/blob/master/.bash_profile#L77

Would be nice to have this updated in the .bash_profile file. There is even a pull request for it. Is this project still maintained?

@rkrv @purezen The parse_git_dirty function can be fixed by replacing it with:

parse_git_dirty() {
  [[ -n "$(git status -s 2> /dev/null)" ]] && echo "*"
}

much less operations and it works as expected
