How can we show branch name anytime we’re running terminal on git directory in windows?

Question

The branch name is shown in git bash, but in my vs code, the branch name does not show.
I want the branch name to be shown in PowerShell as it is my default terminal in vs code.

Is there any way to do this by configuring PowerShell? Does PowerShell support plugins for this kind of purpose – Knowledge Man Jan 28 '22 at 08:11
