.bashrc break, second line entered in shell eats up first line

I've using a .bashrc from one of peepcode's screencast.

# If not running interactively, don't do anything
[ -z "$PS1" ] && return

# check the window size after each command and, if necessary,
# update the values of LINES and COLUMNS.

if [ -z "$debian_chroot" ] && [ -r /etc/debian_chroot ]; then
    debian_chroot=$(cat /etc/debian_chroot)
fi

# set a fancy prompt (non-color, overwrite the one in /etc/profile)
PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}\u@\h:\w\$ '

I can confirm the error is in grb_git_promit. What happens is the second lines typed in shell is overwriting the first line. Can anyone could help me with this?

EDIT:

grb_git_prompt() {
    local g="$(__gitdir)"
    if [ -n "$g" ]; then
        local MINUTES_SINCE_LAST_COMMIT=`minutes_since_last_commit`
        if [ "$MINUTES_SINCE_LAST_COMMIT" -gt 30 ]; then
            local COLOR="\[\033[0;31m\]"
        elif [ "$MINUTES_SINCE_LAST_COMMIT" -gt 10 ]; then
            local COLOR="\[\033[0;37m\]"
        else
            local COLOR="\[\033[0;32m\]"
        fi
        local SINCE_LAST_COMMIT="${COLOR}$(minutes_since_last_commit)m$"
        # The __git_ps1 function inserts the current git branch where %s is
    echo "$(__git_ps1 '(%s|')${SINCE_LAST_COMMIT}"
    fi
}

When you have colors and other non-printing escape sequences in your prompt, you have to surround them with escaped single brackets. Here is a simple example:

PS1='\[\033[38;5;1m\]some red text\[\033[0m\]\$ '

Which will cause the prompt to display "some red text" in red and the dollar sign (or "#") in the default color.

Here is another way to do the same thing:

red='\033[38;5;1m'
none='\033[0m'
PS1='\[$red\]some red text\[$none\]\$ '

By the way, to do this more portably and have less complex build-up of variables:

red=$(tput setaf 1)
none=$(tput sgr0)

See man 5 terminfo for more information on the settings.
