Git color not visible through Ubuntu in WSL

Question

I have modified the color of my shell thanks to this tutorial : https://medium.com/@jgarijogarde/make-bash-on-ubuntu-on-windows-10-look-like-the-ubuntu-terminal-f7566008c5c2

It is great, nevertheless, I can no anymore see my active branch on GIT.

In the properties, I don't understand how to choose the right slot to modify the color of the text.

Would someone have an idea ?

I long ago wrote this registry file that you can give a try. The colors are tweaked a bit if you don't mind. This worked for me with a beautiful look.

Windows Registry Editor Version 5.00

Save the above content into a text file with the extension .reg, and double click the file. Then you can see the effects.
