TIL: OMZ was overkill, i fixed that

i discovered that i had pretty much winnowed my oh-my-zsh use down to just needing it for the spiffy git prompt updates (i.e., letting me know i had staged/unstaged changes in the current directory hierarchy. turns out eliminating this from my setup was a lot easier than i was expecting. zsh has a really nice vcs_info module that just needs to be tickled into operation. Git - Git in Zsh had just enough to get me moving in the right direction and a little bit of reading the relevant documentation got me to a slightly nicer tweak of the setup....
