Installation	10. INSTALLATION	order 14	installation install

This configuration is managed as a git repository. To deploy on a new machine:

mv ~/.config/fish ~/.config/fish.bak   # back up any existing config
git clone https://git.rootiest.dev/rootiest/fish-config.git ~/.config/fish

Then open a new Fish shell. Fisher installs automatically on first launch and the Catppuccin Mocha theme is applied. All other plugin functionality is bundled directly with this config and requires no additional installation.

Return Sentinel

config.fish ends with a return sentinel guard. Any lines appended after it by a tool's setup command (starship init fish | source, zoxide init fish | source, etc.) will have no effect. All integrations are managed via conf.d/ files.

If a new tool's shell integration appears to do nothing, check whether its setup command appended an init line below the sentinel and create a dedicated conf.d/<tool>.fish instead.

Updating

Pull the latest changes from the upstream repository without needing a configured git remote:

• config-update — Fetch and apply the latest commits from upstream
• config-update --dry-run — Preview available changes without applying them
• config-update --force — Stash local changes, pull, then restore the stash

All git output is suppressed. Run exec fish after a successful update to reload.
