fish 3.0.2-1 is now available as a test release in Cygwin. fish version 3 introduces backwards-incompatible changes with version 2:
* See https://fishshell.com/release_notes.html for the list of upstream changes. See especially the release notes for fish 3.0.0. * Universal variables are saved in a different file now (fish_variables, instead of fishd.$HOSTNAME.$ARCH, in ~/.config/fish), and fish doesn't port the stored values from the old file to the new one. So you'll have to reset your universal variables in fish version 3. If you want to import all of the old values, you can probably develop a sed script to do it by inspecting the (different) formats of the old and new files. If you just want to reset them manually as needed, you can look up the old values in ~/.config/fish/fishd.$HOSTNAME.$ARCH. * In Cygwin only, fish version 2 saved different sets of universal variables for the i686 and x86_64 architectures. In version 3 I haven't reapplied the patch to do that yet, so for now the two architectures share universal variables. I'm considering whether they should still be separate, so please reply with your comments about whether separating them is a good/bad/indifferent thing to do. fish is the friendly interactive shell. It's a Unix shell that focuses on interactive use, discoverability, and user friendliness. The design goal of fish is to give the user a rich set of powerful features in a way that is easy to discover, remember, and use. Home page: http://fishshell.com Andrew E.
