The main point is to match the colors to be more close to the color
output of "git status -sb".
- the branchname is green, or in red when the HEAD is detached;
- the flags are either red or green for unstaged/staged and the
remaining flags get a different color or none at all.

By setting GIT_PS1_SHOW_COLORHINTS when using __git_ps1
as PROMPT_COMMAND, you will get color hints in addition to
a different character (*+% etc.) to indicate the state of
the tree.

Changes __git_ps1 to allow its use as PROMPT_COMMAND in bash
in addition to setting PS1 with __git_ps1 in a command substitution.
PROMPT_COMMAND has advantages for using color without running
into prompt-wrapping issues. Only by assigning \[ and \] to PS1
directly can bash know that these and the enclosed zero-width codes in
between don't count in the length of the prompt.

Describe what '=' means in the output of __git_ps1 when using
GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM, which was not previously described.

The __gitdir function is duplicated between completion and prompt
scripts, and these definitions should not diverge; otherwise one of
them can be subtly broken depending on the order the user's shell
dot-sources them.
Leave a note to people who may want to touch one copy to make sure
they update the other one in sync. Hopefully this line would also
appear in the context of the patch to allow reviewers to notice a
patch that attempts to update only one of them.
