[PATCH 0/4] In PS1 prompt, make upstream state indicators consistent with other state indicators

["Justin Donnelly via GitGitGadget" <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>]

These patches are about the characters and words that can be configured to
display in the PS1 prompt after the branch name. I've been unable to find a
consistent terminology. I refer to them as follows: [short | long] [type]
state indicator where short is for characters (e.g. ?), long is for words
(e.g. |SPARSE), and type is the type of indicator (e.g. sparse or upstream).
I'd be happy to change the commit messages to a different terminology if
that's preferred.

There are a few inconsistencies with the PS1 prompt upstream state indicator
(GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM).

 * With GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM="auto", if there are no other short state
   indicators (e.g. + for staged changes, $ for stashed changes, etc.), the
   upstream state indicator appears adjacent to the branch name (e.g.
   (main=)) instead of being separated by SP or GIT_PS1_STATESEPARATOR (e.g.
   (main =)).
 * If there are long state indicators (e.g. |SPARSE), a short upstream state
   indicator (i.e. GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM="auto") is to the right of the long
   state indicator (e.g. (main +|SPARSE=)) instead of with the other short
   state indicators (e.g. (main +=|SPARSE)).
 * The long upstream state indicator (e.g. GIT_PS1_SHOWUPSTREAM="verbose")
   is separated from other (short or long) state indicators by a hard-coded
   SP. Other long state indicators are separated by a hard-coded pipe (|).

These patches are to make the upstream state indicators more consistent with
other state indicators.

Justin Donnelly (4):
  git-prompt: rename `upstream` to `upstream_type`
  git-prompt: make upstream state indicator location consistent
  git-prompt: make long upstream state indicator consistent
  git-prompt: put upstream comments together
