Builtin

Execute a builtin command. This is only useful when reimplementing a builtin but still need to call the original builtin within the function.

Caller

Cd

Change the current working directory to a new path. Can be a relative or absolute path, as well as the special . and .. directories.

Note the rules for tilde expansion when using the ~ symbol here.

cd - changes the current working directory to the previous working directory.

There is also special behavior around specifying nothing. cd is the same as cd ~.

Command

if ! command -v mypy >/dev/null 2>&1; then
  echo "cannot locate mypy; is it installed?"
  exit
