How to always activate branch

[lcrockett]

I'd like the branch section to always be active. If i'm not in an git repo i'd like to show 'NA'. If i'm in a git repo i'd like to show the branch name, per default behaviour of the branch component. Is this possible with the current Lualine implementation ? For LSP diagnostics there's a context switch to set it to always_visible, however no such switch exists currently for branch.

I've tried playing around with cond and ensuring it always returns true, to no avail unfortunately. Any hints are welcome.

I think you can use fmt component options

{
    'branch',
    fmt = function (str)
        if str == '' then 
            return 'NA'
        end 
        return str 
    end,
}

Of course, that worked like a charmadillo ! Cheers
