\section cd cd - change directory
\subsection cd-synopsis Synopsis
\fish{synopsis}
cd [DIRECTORY]
\endfish
\subsection cd-description Description
`cd` changes the current working directory.
If `DIRECTORY` is supplied, it will become the new directory. If no parameter
is given, the contents of the `HOME` environment variable will be used.
If `DIRECTORY` is a relative path, the paths found in the
`CDPATH` environment variable array will be tried as prefixes for the specified
path.
Note that the shell will attempt to change directory without requiring `cd`
if the name of a directory is provided (starting with '`.`', '`/`' or `~`', or ending
with '`/`').
\subsection cd-example Examples
`cd` changes the working directory to your home directory.
`cd /usr/src/fish-shell` changes the working directory to
`/usr/src/fish-shell`.
