[Bug 1088960] Re: Missing __git_ps1

bash_completion is an extensible mechanism to augment bash’s builtin
completion of filenames with context-sensitive completion of many other
things, such as git subcommands.

rebase             relink             replace-author     rm 
rebase-multi       remote             request-pull       
rebase-onto-many   repack             reset              
reflog             replace            revert             

Even though Ubuntu’s global /etc/bash.bashrc does not enable
bash_completion, the default ~/.bashrc does.  You can find a clean copy
of the default ~/.bashrc in /etc/skel/.bashrc (which is used for
creating new accounts).

Title:
  Missing __git_ps1

Status in “git” package in Ubuntu:
  Invalid

Bug description:
  I have been using this in my bashrc. It no longer works, as of Ubuntu
  12.10.

  if [ -f /usr/local/git/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash ]; then
    . /usr/local/git/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash
  fi
  export GIT_PS1_SHOWDIRTYSTATE=true

  export PS1="\[\033[36m\][\!][\t] \[\033[1;33m\]\u\[\033[0m\]@\h:\[\033[36m\][\w]:\[\033[0m\]\$(__git_ps1) 
  ---

  I get "__git_ps1: command not found" after every prompt. (Obviously I
  will remove __git_ps1 for now from the prompt.) Please fix.
