Allow disabling automatic terminal title
acuteenvy commentedon Jan 3, 2026
The shell usually sets the title to something else after
gituiexits.We could also just save the previous terminal title and reset it on exit.

That won't do unfortunately. I set the title myself via the wrapper script as I need to see a specific information in there, hence the PR.
I think that in general, it's a good practise to offer a user "sane default behaviour with a way out".
