Shell Prompt and LS Customization?


I have used oh_my_zsh (and tinkered with bash_it) on multiple systems and have generally been happy with it, though I hate it's auto-correction feature and generally turn it off.

My usual shell is zsh and really want just three things from my prompt:

1. Current directory/or pwd.

2. Git status and branch.

3. Color output from ls.

The rest is just bling and often irritating.

By using these shell scripts I am paying too much in cpu cycles for what I want.

Any suggestions, either with using these scripts or as a separate shell script. I am OK with either zsh or bash.

Thanks.
