Settings that were bash-specific were previously removed from
system/skeleton/etc/profile. This measn that users using bash no longer
get the "normal" bash prompt with [user at host dir]#/$, and only get #/$.
This commit adds back the bash-specific settings, but adds them to the
bash package so they are only used when bash is installed on the target
system.
bash_profile.sh contains the variables, aliases, and color profile that
were previously in system/skeleton/etc/profile. The changes to bash.mk
use a post-install hook to install bash_profile.sh to the target
filesystem, where it will later be sourced by /etc/profile when a bash
shell is started.

Having this or that shell prompt is really a user-specific
choice/configuration. You can already customize that very easily by
keeping this bash_profile.sh file in your rootfs overlay.
Therefore, I don't think it's really useful to have such customization
by default in Buildroot, and I prefer to not take this patch.
Thanks!
Thomas

I side with Thomas: this really is a user customisation, so belongs to a
rootfs overlay (or a post-build script).
I'll mark this patch as rejected in Patchwork.
Thanks! :-)
