SOLVED TErminal prompt never references my repo

[c3PanoH]

My repo was setup using cPanel Git™ Version Control. Problem (though minor) - the cPanel Terminal prompt always starts one level higher than the actual repo.
When i was setting up the repo it asked me where i should set the repo and i specified 'public_html' where it can correctly be seen with the path:

/home/myusername/public_html/

However whenever i start terminal it always opens in:

/home/myusername/

so I'm constantly 'cd'-ing (changing directory) into 'public_html' - its probably
simple but i dont know how to permanently change terminal to start in 'public_html' the repo index repo.

Hey there! While there isn't a setting in cPanel to control this, you could add the following line to the end of the /home/username/.bashrc file, as this gets run each time the user logs in:

cd /home/username/public_html

That will tell Bash to cd you into the public_html directory each time the user is logged in.

Let me know if that works for you!

Hi cPRex,
That did the trick!, i thank you - still learning bash commands so this one is right at the top of my list; its the obvious ones that fool you sometimes.

thank you
