Could it be that git-sh-prompt no longer works properly?

With git 2.31.1:
$ . /usr/lib/git-core/git-sh-prompt
$ PS1='[\u@\h \W$(__git_ps1 " (%s)")]\$ '
$ cd someGitRepo
bash: GIT_PS1_COMPRESSSPARSESTATE: unbound variable
$
Would

    $ set +u

fix it, I have to wonder?
Assuming that the answer is yes,...

I do not know who maintains this contrib/ script, but here is what

$ git grep -e '\$GIT_PS1_' -e '\${GIT_PS1_[^}-]*}' contrib/completion

gave me a handful candidates for fixes.  Randomly picking Elijah from
the output of

    $ git shortlog --no-merges -sn --since=18.months  \
        contrib/completion/git-prompt.sh |
      head -n 1

for ideas.
Yeah, I accidentally was relying on undefined-translates-to-empty,
which breaks under set -u.  I can duplicate the precise error, and
your fix below is exactly how I fixed it too, before seeing you posted
the same fix.

I'll post a patch with you as author...and some questions on what to
do with the rest of the commit message and attribution tags.
