+Release Notes for fish 2.0.0
+
+Significant Changes
+
+
+- Command substitutions now modify $status #547.
+
+Previously the exit status of command substitutions (like (pwd)) was ignored; however now it modifies $status. Furthermore, the set command now only sets $status on failure; it is untouched on success. This allows for the following pattern:
+
+if set python_path (which python)
+ ...
+end
+
+
+Because set does not modify $status on success, the if branch effectively tests whether which succeeded, and if so, whether the set also succeeded.
+
+
+
+Improvements to $PATH handling.
+
+
- There is a new variable, $fish_user_paths, which can be set universally, and whose contents are appended to $PATH #527
+- /etc/paths and /etc/paths.d are now respected on OS X
+- fish no longer modifies $PATH to find its own binaries
+
+
+
+
+Long lines no longer use ellipsis for line breaks, and copy and paste should no longer include a newline even if the line was broken #300
+
+New syntax for index ranges (sometimes known as "slices") #212
+
+fish now supports an else if statement #134
+
+Process and pid completion now works on OS X #129
+
+fish is now relocatable, and no longer depends on compiled-in paths #125
+
+fish now supports a right prompt (RPROMPT) through the fish_right_prompt function #80
+
+fish now uses posix_spawn instead of fork when possible, which is much faster on BSD and OS X #11
+
+
+
