Two related defects on the `$GIT_SERVER` auto-create path added in #150.
The test suite was creating repositories on a live forge. mkrep resolves a
server from `$GIT_SERVER` plus `$GITEA_URL`/`$GITEA_HOST`, and this repo
doubles as a real ~/.config/fish where all of them are exported, so the six
sections that call a bare `mkrep <dir>` took the auto-create branch and
contacted the server. That is how an empty `rootiest/repo` came to exist on
git.rootiest.dev on 2026-09-14 (since deleted). It also explains why those
cases looked flaky rather than broken: standalone they passed, because the
repo existed and mkrep linked instead of creating, while under
run-tests.fish they failed with `Error: no available login` — a throwaway
XDG_CONFIG_HOME leaves `tea` with no credentials. Passing for that reason is
worse than failing.
The suite now neutralizes all five variables once at setup, the same
shadow-to-empty pattern already used per-section for --check-existing, whose
comment flagged this exact hazard. Nothing depended on the ambient value:
every section wanting a server sets its own `set -lx GIT_SERVER`, and one
section asserts the opposite outright.
mkrep itself now confirms before an implicit create. Creating a repository
on a forge is the only outward-facing thing mkrep does, and on this path an
exported variable is all it takes to reach it, so `mkrep foo` — which reads
as purely local — would make a repo on a server without saying so. It asks
first, defaulting to no; declining leaves the local repo with no remote and
still exits 0. Provenance is what gates the prompt, not the resolved value:
--server, --remote and --new-remote all state outright what they will do, so
none of them prompts, and --yes skips the question. Where it cannot be asked
(a script, a pipe, any non-interactive shell) creation is skipped rather than
assumed, with a note on stderr naming the flags that would allow it.
Nine new assertions cover the skip, its stderr note, --yes, and --server not
prompting. The interactive read is verified by hand under a PTY, both
answers, but is not in the suite: that needs a pseudo-terminal, and the
answer parsing it guards is a single `string match`.
Both back the new `md` wrapper and nothing else, so both land in the
Optional tier, skipped by `fish-deps install`/`sync` unless `--optional`
(or `--all`) is passed.
firejail is a plain system package everywhere, so it needs no special
handling. marktext is not: upstream ships an AUR package and its own
GitHub release assets, and no distro carries it under a common name. Its
`_fdc_pm` entry is therefore deliberately empty, and a `marktext-release`
special offers the AUR package via paru/yay where one is present and
otherwise installs upstream's AppImage to ~/.local/bin/marktext.
The release assets embed their version in the filename, so there is no
stable /releases/latest/download URL to fetch -- `_fish_deps_marktext_appimage`
reads the download URL from the GitHub API instead. Upstream builds the
Linux AppImage for x86_64 only, and the helper says so rather than
downloading an unusable binary.
`fish-deps update` refreshes marktext through the AUR where available, and
otherwise only when ~/.local/bin/marktext exists -- a distro-packaged
marktext belongs to that package manager, and dropping an AppImage into
~/.local/bin would shadow it.
pandoc wasn't available when this branch's earlier commit ran
build-manual.py --concat; regenerate docs/fish-config.1 from the
current docs/fish-config.md now that it is.
Renamed 'Uninstalling / Reverting to Backup' to 'Uninstalling and Reverting to Backup' to avoid the edge cases where forward slashes cause Starlight top navigation cards to break when generating the heading slug.
Replaced the minimal mode troubleshooting section with a new 'What's with the C1-C6 stuff?' heading. Included a quick-reference table for the six opinionated categories with links to their detailed customization sections, and updated the documentation index.
