    ![image](https://cloud.githubusercontent.com/assets/1700322/8341607/93e820d6-1a8b-11e5-81c8-3dd429270068.png)

    Open `~/.bash_profile` in your favorite editor and add the following content to the bottom.

    ```sh
    # Git branch in prompt.

    parse_git_branch() {
    git branch 2> /dev/null | sed -e '/^[^*]/d' -e 's/* \(.*\)/ (\1)/'
    }

    export PS1="\u@\h \W\[\033[32m\]\$(parse_git_branch)\[\033[00m\] $ "
    ```
