Can someone explain to me why I am getting this shell prompt when I'm in the /home directory, and how to get rid of it?  I am using zsh.

I want it to display only the following:

user@host ~ %

but it displays:

user@host ~ (svn)-[jp2014_213276_567222:1] %

I want to get rid of the part from (svn) up to the ~.

Output of echo $PS1:

%B%F{red}%(?..%? )%f%b%B%F{blue}%n%f%b@%m %B%40<..<%~%<< %b%F{magenta}(%fsvn%F{magenta})%F{yellow}-%F{magenta}[%F{green}2510_1331544_1331256%F{red}:%F{yellow}1%F{magenta}]%f %#

    Why what keeps showing? What precise feature of that screenshot do you want to get rid of? Commented Oct 19, 2015 at 20:32
  • this right part from user@host ~, so (svn)-(blabla123123) keeps showing when I open /home and before using svn it was normal Commented Oct 19, 2015 at 20:37

    Please edit your question and include the output of echo $PS1. Commented Oct 19, 2015 at 20:49
  • Is that stuff at the bottom the response to terdon's request? If so you might want to give it some context, like "Here's the output of echo $PS1" or something. Otherwise it just looks like line noise Commented Oct 19, 2015 at 21:09
  • Yes that is the output of echo $PS1 and the bottom part of code is the right side of user@host -> (svn)-(name od directory) Commented Oct 19, 2015 at 21:27

It looks like you've initialized your home folder as a svn repo. Fix with:

mv ~/.svn ~/.svn.bak 

Alternatively, if you're not using svn, you can disable the svn components of vcs_info. Add a line like this, after you have sourced oh-my-zsh or whatever:

zstyle ':vcs_info:*' enable hg bzr git cvs

Check the output of functions. I'm pretty sure it contains a special function called precmd or chpwd which sets your PS1. See 9.3.1 of http://zsh.sourceforge.net/Doc/Release/Functions.html
