+#### Git Status Opt-Out
+
+ To disable Cmder prompt git status globally add the following to `~/.gitconfig` or locally for a single repo `[repo]/.git/config` and start a new session.
+
+ *Note: This configuration is not portable*
+
+ ```
+ [cmder]
+   status = false      # Opt out of Git status for 'ALL' Cmder supported shells.
+   cmdstatus = false   # Opt out of Git status for 'Cmd.exe' shells.
+   psstatus = false    # Opt out of Git status for 'Powershell.exe and 'Pwsh.exe' shells.
+   shstatus = false    # Opt out of Git status for 'bash.exe' shells.

 ### Aliases
 #### Cmder(`Cmd.exe`) Aliases
 You can define simple aliases for `cmd.exe` sessions with a command like `alias name=command`.  Cmd.exe aliases support optional parameters through the `$1-9` or the `$*` special characters so the alias `vi=vim.exe $*` typed as `vi [filename]` will open `[filename]` in `vim.exe`.

-Cmd.exe aliases can also be more complex. See: [DOSKEY.EXE documentation](http://www.microsoft.com/resources/documentation/windows/xp/all/proddocs/en-us/doskey.mspx?mfr=true) for additional details on complex aliases/macros for `cmd.exe`
+Cmd.exe aliases can also be more complex. See: [DOSKEY.EXE documentation](https://docs.microsoft.com/en-us/windows-server/administration/windows-commands/doskey) for additional details on complex aliases/macros for `cmd.exe`

 Aliases defined using the `alias.bat` command will automatically be saved in the `%CMDER_ROOT%\config\user-aliases.cmd` file
