 I've always wanted a sexy terminal prompt (aka $PS1, dear power users).
 Finally I managed to find it. It's called
 [powerline-sheel](https://github.com/milkbikis/powerline-shell). Except nice
 look it offers git/svn/hg integration as you can see on the screenshot below.

 It's compatible with Bash, Zsh and Fish shells. Installation instructions are on
 the Github project page.
