Link to git-prompt.sh in "A1.6 Git in Bash"

[marbru]

General overview of your idea.

In the "A1.6 Git in Bash· chapter, it points you to a git-prompt.sh file in the git repository, but it doesn't provide any links. I had to go thru a bit of googling to find the file in question.

I think it would be useful to provide at the very least a link to the repository, or even directly to the file, or both. Tu turn this paragraph:

To add these to your prompt, just copy the contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh file from Git’s source repository to your home directory, add something like this to your .bashrc:

Into this:

Could even add a code snippet right after to curl the file into the right location:

curl -o ~/git-prompt.sh https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh

If you think it's a good idea I can create a pull request implementing the change.
