Fabian Boehm 38b24c2325 docs: Use :doc: role when linking to commands
This makes it so we link to the very top of the document instead of a
special anchor we manually include.

So clicking e.g. :doc:`string <cmds/string>` will link you to
cmds/string.html instead of cmds/string.html#cmd-string.

I would love to have a way to say "this document from the root of the
document path", but that doesn't appear to work, I tried
`/cmds/string`.

So we'll just have to use cmds/string in normal documents and plain
`string` from other commands.

.. _cmd-fish_vcs_prompt:
fish_vcs_prompt - output version control system information for use in a prompt
===============================================================================
Synopsis
--------
.. synopsis::
fish_vcs_prompt
::
function fish_prompt
printf '%s' $PWD (fish_vcs_prompt) ' $ '
end
Description
-----------
The ``fish_vcs_prompt`` function displays information about the current version control system (VCS) repository, if any.
It calls out to VCS-specific functions. The currently supported systems are:
- :doc:`fish_git_prompt <fish_git_prompt>`
- :doc:`fish_hg_prompt <fish_hg_prompt>`
- :doc:`fish_svn_prompt <fish_svn_prompt>`
If a VCS isn't installed, the respective function does nothing.
The Subversion prompt is disabled by default, because it's slow on large repositories. To enable it, modify ``fish_vcs_prompt`` to uncomment it. See :doc:`funced <funced>`.
For more information, see the documentation for each of the functions above.
Example
-------
A simple prompt that displays all known VCS info::
function fish_prompt
...
set -g __fish_git_prompt_showupstream auto
printf '%s %s$' $PWD (fish_vcs_prompt)
end
