I suppose it would be fine if a patch was sent to update the entire
git-prompt.sh code to be more in line with the Git shell script style...
Please don't. We do not want a "style conversion" for the sole
purpose of conversion, especially when a subsystem is already
internally consistent.
Besides, the git-prompt.sh thing needs to be fairly bash specific so
the usual "Git Porcelain scripts targetted for POSIX/Bourne shells"
rules does not apply there.
My original gripe was just with doing it in one place while leaving all
the others unchanged. It makes for messy reading and leads to confusion.
Yes, it is always preferred to match the _local_ convention.
