.. _cmd-popd: popd - move through directory stack =================================== Synopsis -------- popd Description ----------- ``popd`` removes the top directory from the directory stack and changes the working directory to the new top directory. Use :ref:`pushd ` to add directories to the stack. You may be interested in the :ref:`cdh ` command which provides a more intuitive way to navigate to recently visited directories. Example ------- :: pushd /usr/src # Working directory is now /usr/src # Directory stack contains /usr/src pushd /usr/src/fish-shell # Working directory is now /usr/src/fish-shell # Directory stack contains /usr/src /usr/src/fish-shell popd # Working directory is now /usr/src # Directory stack contains /usr/src
