Ahoy! Fisherman gets a super patch v0.3.1

This patch contains several amends for 0.3.0 and
other minor documentation corrections.  Major
documentation revision and rewrite.

fisher help shows fisher(1) by default now.

Fix a critical bug that was causing fisher uninstall
--force to remove not the symbolic link, but the
actual files. Closes #24

Rename orphan tag to custom for plugins installed
using a custom URL.

warning Remove fisher --link flag and create symbolic
links by default for local paths. The user does not
have to worry about symbolic links or whether the
copy is as symbolic link or not anymore. If the user
tries to install a local path, then the best thing
to do is to create a symbolic link. This also
eliminates the need to call update.

warning Remove fisher --cache and fisher --validate.
Now, that these options are separated into their own
function and they are intentionally private, there
is no need for them.

fisher-config(7) -- Fisherman Configuration

SYNOPSIS

This document describes how to use the available configuration options to customize Fisherman.

DESCRIPTION

Your fish user configuration, usually located in $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fish/config.fish is updated after installing Fisherman to add the global variables $fisher_home and $fisher_config.

$fisher_home is the directory where you downloaded Fisherman. This location can be anywhere you like. If you changed this location after installing Fisherman, you need to update $fisher_home as well.

$fisher_config is the user configuration directory and the location of your user fishfile, cache directory and where plugins get installed to. This location must be different from $fisher_home. The default location is $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fisherman.

You can also customize the debug log path, cache location, index source URL, command aliases, and other options via $fisher_* variables.

VARIABLES

$fisher_home: The home directory. This is the path where you downloaded Fisherman.
$fisher_config: The user configuration directory. $XDG_CONFIG_HOME/fisherman by default. This directory is where the cache, functions and completions directories are located.
$fisher_cache: The cache directory. Plugins are first downloaded here and installed to $fisher_config/functions afterwards. The cache is $fisher_config/cache by default.
$fisher_index: Index source URL or file. To use a different index set this to a file or URL. Redirect urls are not supported due to security and performance concerns. The underlying request and fetch mechanism is based in curl(1). See also Index in fisher(7).
$fisher_error_log: This file keeps a log of the most recent crash stack trace. $fisher_cache/.debug_log by default.
$fisher_alias command=alias[,...] [command2=alias[,...]]: Use this variable to define custom aliases for fisher commands. See Examples below.
$fisher_default_host: Use this variable to define your preferred git host. Fisherman uses this value to convert short urls like owner/repo to https://host/owner/repo. The default host is github.com.

EXAMPLES

Create aliases for fisher install to i, in and inst; and for fisher update to up.

set fisher_alias install=i,in,inst update=up

Set $fisher_index and $fisher_default_host.

set fisher_index https://raw.../owner/repo/master/index2.txt
set fisher_default_host bitbucket.org
