What this does

• Gives you a more colorful prompt
• Adds git-prompt support that lists the current branch the current repo is on
• Puts directories before files when listing them (ll)
• Makes sure your history is large enough
• Makes your tab = 4 spaces
• gives you access to jupyter lab using the alias jlab
  • As long as your current environment has JupyterLab installed, it will run it, silence all the output, and put it in the background (not locking your prompt)
