### Extra configuration
Powerlevel10k has a handful of configuration options that Powerlevel9k doesn't have. They
are still using the `POWERLEVEL9K` prefix though.
* `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_MAX_SYNC_LATENCY_SECONDS (FLOAT) [default=0.05]`
If it takes longer than this to fetch git repo status, display the prompt with a greyed out
vcs segment and fix it asynchronously when the results come it.
* `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_BACKENDS (ARRAY) [default=(git)]`
The list of VCS backends to use. Supported values are `git`, `svn` and `hg`. Note that adding
anything other than git will make prompt slower even when your current directory isn't a repo.
* `POWERLEVEL9K_DISABLE_GITSTATUS (STRING) [default="false"]`
If set to `"true"`, Powerlevel10k won't use its fast git backend and will fall back to
`vcs_info` like Powerlevel9k.
* `POWERLEVEL9K_MAX_CACHE_SIZE (INT) [default=10000]`
The maximum number of elements that can be stored in the cache. When the cache grows over this
limit, it gets cleared.
* `POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_MAX_INDEX_SIZE_DIRTY (INT) [default=-1]`
Don't scan for dirty files in git repos with more files in the index than this. Instead, show
them with the "dirty" color (yellow by default) whether they are dirty or not. This makes git
prompt much faster on huge repositories.
## Try it out
Try Powerlevel10k without making any changes to your setup. If you like it, see
[Installation and configuration](#installation-and-configuration) for how to make a permanent
switch.

Columns define the current directory where the prompt was rendered.
* `/` -- root directory, not a git repo.
* `~/testrepo` -- a tiny git repo.
* `~/nerd-fonts` -- [nerd-fonts](https://github.com/ryanoasis/nerd-fonts) git repo
with 4k files.
* `~/linux` -- [linux](https://github.com/torvalds/linux) git repo. Huge.
Here's how the prompt looked like (identical by design in Powerlevel9k and Powerlevel 10k):
_This table used to have another column for Linux kernel git repo, which is massive. It's
been removed because it's not a fair comparison. Powerlevel10k automatically detects that
fetching git status is slow and switches to async prompt generation, which allows it to
achieve 2 ms prompt latency but not all its prompt have up-to-date git info. Those that don't,
have vcs segment greyed out._

Really, there is no catch. It's literally the same prompt with the same flexibility
configuration format as Powerlevel9k. But **much faster**.
If you really need to know, here's where Powerlevel10k differs from Powerlevel9k:
* Git prompt doesn't show tags and revisions. Open an issue if you need them.
* By default only git vcs backend is enabled. If you need svn and hg, you'll need to set
`POWERLEVEL9K_VCS_BACKENDS`. See [Extra configuration](#extra-configuration).
* Fewer configuration options can be changed after the theme is loaded. For example, if you
decide to change background color of some segment in the middle of an interactive session,
it may not work.
