Please test it, and report successes or failu= res to the cygwin list. fish 2.2 has significant changes since fish 2.1; please see http://fishshell.com/release_notes.html for the full list. UPDATE ISSUES: 1. You may see errors when fish starts, saying that "Old versions of fish a= ppear to be running." This is because of architectural changes (removal of fishd) from fish 2.1 to 2.2. If you see this, please try the following things: * Kill all running instances of fish and, especially, fishd (pkill fish, or killall fish). * Remove all directories /tmp/fishd.* (rm -rf /tmp/fishd.*) * If necessary, rm ~/.config/fish/fishd.* . But this probably will remove = all of your stored universal variables. Then restart fish. If the error messages persist, please report that to the cygwin list. 2. fish may hang at startup. This happens becaue the startup file /etc/fish/config.fish in fish 2.1.1 included syntax that causes fish 2.2.0 = to hang.=20=20 * If you didn't customize /etc/fish/config.fish, then there's nothing you n= eed to do. The old file will be replaced with a corrected new one when you upd= ate, and fish should start normally. * If you did customize /etc/fish/config.fish, then your customized file won= 't be replaced on update, and fish will probably hang at startup (a "cat" process= will be running, waiting forever for input). To fix this: + Kill all running instances of fish and cat. + Replace your old /etc/fish/config.fish with a copy of=20 /etc/defaults/etc/fish/config.fish, and re-add any customizations you w= ant=20 to make. + Restart fish. If you've tried the above and fish still hangs on startup, please report th= at to the cygwin list. 3. Some, but not all, users report seeing a boatload of "Permission denied" errors, like: Unable to rename '/home/$USER/.config/fish/fishd.tmp.xSJhcG' to '/home/$USER/.config/fish/fishd.$HOSTNAME': Permission denied I don't know what's causing this yet. If you have these errors, please rep= ort it to the cygwin list. fish is the friendly interactive shell. It's a Unix shell that focuses on interactive use, discoverability, and user friendliness. The design goal of= fish is to give the user a rich set of powerful features in a way that is easy to discover, remember, and use. Home page: http://fishshell.com Andrew E.
