2 years ago Ah cool, thanks. I did try to check the docs and didn't see that. I found it now, it's under the docs for the "git" (not "poshgit") segment.

2 years ago Actually, even now that I've set $env:POSH_GIT_ENABLED it seems to behave weirdly - it always puts the Posh-Git status at the start of the prompt line, instead of where I position it in the template. Is that to be expected?
Also, oh-my-posh debug still shows it as poshgit(false) all the time - I guess that may be because it needs fancy integration with the Powershell environment that debug doesn't have, but of so, how do I check whether the performance benefit of using it is worth it over just using the git segment?
I will say that I've just discovered that if I leave fetch_status at its default of false, the git segment is actually plenty fast enough, so I'm probably not going to bother with poshgit anyway. As a result this is mostly just theoretical to me at this point, so don't spend too much time on it!

2 years ago @pfmoore make sure to update posh-git as they fixed something in that area. Also, add oh-my-posh before importing posh-git.

2 years ago Ah! I was importing posh-git first. (I did also have an old version of posh-git, but I'd spotted that and updated it and still had the issue).

Code of Conduct
What happened?
I altered my config to use the poshgit segment in place of git. I have Posh-Git installed and imported in my profile before oh-my-posh. My config has a copy of the default poshgit settings:
If I run
oh-my-posh debugwhen in a git checkout, the output shows:I can't find any instructions on how to
Theme
A custom config. To ensure I didn't have an issue with something else in my config, I replaced it with a copy of
jandedobbeleer.omp.jsonand just replaced the git section in that with the poshgit section shown above.What OS are you seeing the problem on?
Windows
