Understanding the git symbols in oh my posh

I have the paradox theme on the terminal using oh my posh. But I can't find anywhere what these symbols mean. I tried using the command $ThemeSettings.GitSymbols but I don't get anything (I'm using the v3). Where should I be looking for?

The prompt theming JanDeDobbeleer/oh-my-posh includes themes based on symbols from dahlbyk/posh-git

 [{HEAD-name} S +A ~B -C !D | +E ~F -G !H W]

With:

  • ≡ = The local branch in at the same commit level as the remote branch (BranchIdenticalStatus)
  • ↑<num> = The local branch is ahead of the remote branch by the specified number of commits; a git push is required to update the remote branch (BranchAheadStatus)
  • ↓<num> = The local branch is behind the remote branch by the specified number of commits; a git pull is required to update the local branch (BranchBehindStatus)

ABCD represent the index; | (DelimStatus); EFGH represent the working directory

  • + = Added files
  • ~ = Modified files
  • - = Removed files
  • ! = Conflicted files

W represents the overall status of the working directory

  • ! = There are unstaged changes in the working tree (LocalWorkingStatusSymbol)
  • ~ = There are uncommitted changes i.e. staged changes in the working tree waiting to be committed (LocalStagedStatusSymbol)
  • None = There are no unstaged or uncommitted changes to the working tree (LocalDefaultStatusSymbol)
