Just to relay a comment that I made on #14144. The IPython update broke branch printing and nobody noticed for a while. So I removed it. There are a number of ways to find out the branch very easily:
* Just "hg branch", without even starting Sage * Look at the devel/sage symlink * From within Sage: hg_sage.current_branch() In general, making the banner depend on the configuration will break the sage<->sage interface and doctests occasionally. So there is a clear cost involved in printing extra stuff during startup. Though if you still think that it is important to print the current branch during startup then we can reinstate the old behaviour (until we switch to git). -- You received this message because you are subscribed to the Google Groups "sage-combinat-devel" group.
