Open .bashrc file with your favorite text editor. In my case I used nano. Find the line that looks like
PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}[33[01;32m]u@h[33[00m]:[33[01;34m]w[33[00m]$ '
In my case it was at line 53. Replace it with:
PS1='${debian_chroot:+($debian_chroot)}[33[01;32m]u@h[33[00m]:[33[01;34m]w[33[00m]> '
And you are done. Open a new terminal to see changes.
