What I like on remote servers or anything not using git.

I’ve tried other way of doing colors, while this is the ugliest it seems to not break things in subtle ways when doing non-interactive logins. The 00m is default colors, so my @ sign, the git prompt stuff, the $ and everything afterwards will use the terminal’s profile settings.
