Set __git_ps1 to display nothing when present working directory is
ignored, triggered by either the new environmental variable
GIT_PS1_HIDE_ON_IGNORED_PWD or the new repository configuration
variable bash.hideOnIgnoredPwd (or both). In the absence of these
settings this change has no effect.
Many people manage e.g. dotfiles in their home directory with git.
This causes the prompt generated by __git_ps1 to refer to that "top
level" repo while working in any descendant directory. That can be
distracting, so this patch helps one shut off that noise.

I think this is what you meant. I changed the name of the envvar. Now the
variables are GIT_PS1_HIDE_ON_IGNORED_PWD and bash.hideOnIgnoredPwd. I
admit these are still kind of unwieldy, but maybe now they're more descriptive?
Please advise!
cheers,
Jess
