        I thought it’d have better git prompt out of the box. I guess I have to try it configure.

            I just installed it as it is out of the box. What do you suggest for improving git prompt?

      I thought you weren’t supposed to use Fish as your login shell directly since it isn’t fully POSIX compatible

          They warn about it on their home page, so I assumed using it could bust your system. My bad.
          I think they also had harsher wording about this in the past but I might be misremembering…

            Scripts who use #!/bin/sh are independent of your login shell.
