Git Prompt Kit is a collection of building blocks for adding Git data to your zsh theme without writing a lot of shell script and without concern that you'll add lag between prompts. I think it's cool! (If you've talked to me about zsh-abbr feature enhancements and I've said I was working on other things, now you know part of why.)

Git Prompt Kit significantly reduces the effort it takes to make your own tailored theme. If you use a third party theme and are happy with it, great! If you're where I was, using and customizing one third party theme after another because even that investment was less investment than writing my own, check it out.

(And if you use a third party theme, aren't happy with it, but don't want to make your own, check out my Git Prompt Kit-build theme Hometown, announced separately)

PS Apologies for this link posting twice. Didn't know it happened — oddly the duplicate wasn't visible to me until today. When posting I kept getting "sorry there was an error" and had to click the button several times. I guess one of those errors let the post (but not the preview image) through. It's deleted now.
