This can be used to determine whether the previous command produced a real status, or just carried over the status from the command before it. Backgrounded commands and variable assignments will not increment status_generation, all other commands will.
There are a few code blocks where the default highlighting does not
work and the documentation looks bad as a result. Usually this happens
when we are demonstrating an important interactive feature, such as
autosuggestions, syntax highlighting, or tab completion.
The pygments highlighter was not designed for code samples like these.
But it is important to show the behavior clearly in the docs. I am
attempting to make these weird examples look as much like the "normal"
code blocks as possible.

One of the nicest things about fish is how introspectable it is. We
should probably get people to just mess around and see what is
implemented how. This is a step in that direction.
[ci skip]
- add missing links for some commands (control flow section)
- fix broken links that use the old syntax (#tut_ links)
- miscellaneous fixing of backticks/emphasis
This was always awkward as fish script, and had problems with
interrupting the autoloading.
Note that we still leave the old function intact to facilitate easier
upgrading for now.
Fixes#7145.
Add a helper function to check if the user is root. This function can be
useful for the prompts for example. Modify the prompts made root checked
to use the function instead. Add also the support of Administrator like
a root user.
Fixes: #7031
This reverts commit 9d1129f14cada98bb213605f4c7e4600eff315b6.
Probably a bad rebase, at the time this appeared on master the sentence was already removed.
* docs/faq: Mention prepend_sudo
[ci skip]
* __fish_prepend_sudo: Use $history[1] if commandline is empty
Currently, if you press alt+s with an empty commandline, it inserts
"sudo", which seems fairly useless.
Now, it inserts "sudo " followed by the last history entry, which
makes it a replacement for `sudo !!`.

There's a terrible number of fishscripts that start with
set path (dirname (status filename))
And that's really just a bit boring.
So let's let it be
set path (status dirname)
