Bug#1086057: RFP: powerline-go -- A beautiful and useful low-latency prompt for your shell, written in go

[Samuel Henrique <samueloph@debian.org>]

Package: wnpp
Severity: wishlist

* Package name    : powerline-go
  Version         : 1.24
  Upstream Contact: justjanne
* URL             : https://github.com/justjanne/powerline-go
* License         : GPL-3
  Programming Lang: Golang
  Description     : A beautiful and useful low-latency prompt for your shell, written in go

A Powerline-like prompt for Bash, ZSH and Fish. Based on Powerline-Shell by
@banga. Ported to golang by @justjanne.

 * Shows some important details about the git/hg branch (see below)
 * Changes color if the last command exited with a failure code
 * If you're too deep into a directory tree, shortens the displayed path with
   an ellipsis
 * Shows the current Python virtualenv environment
 * Shows the current Ruby version using rbenv or rvm
 * Shows if you are in a nix shell
 * It's easy to customize and extend. See below for details.

This package could be maintained under the golang team, I can help maintain it
if needed by I'm not sure when I will have to package the first release myself.

Looking at the dependencies, it seems like there's a single one that's missing:
golang.org/x/text

powerline-go is a faster alternative to powerline.

Thank you
