Robin 3a5fff9c6d Don't override customized environments in subshells 
Only set up environment for the top-level shell, and allow it to be
inherited normally.

A top level shell is usually a login shell, but can also be a
non-interactive, non-login shell in certain cases, such as when
executing an SSH remote command.

Configuration Files

Zsh has several system-wide and user-local configuration files.

Prezto has one user-local configuration file.

System-wide configuration files are installation-dependent but are installed in /etc by default.

User-local configuration files have the same name as their global counterparts but are prefixed with a dot (hidden). Zsh looks for these files in the path stored in the $ZDOTDIR environmental variable. However, if said variable is not defined, Zsh will use the user's home directory.

File Descriptions

The configuration files are read in the following order:

  1. /etc/zshenv
  2. ~/.zshenv
  3. /etc/zprofile
  4. ~/.zprofile
  5. /etc/zshrc
  6. ~/.zshrc
  7. ~/.zpreztorc
  8. /etc/zlogin
  9. ~/.zlogin
  10. ~/.zlogout
  11. /etc/zlogout

zshenv

This file is sourced by all instances of Zsh, and thus, it should be kept as small as possible and should only define environment variables.

zprofile

This file is similar to zlogin, but it is sourced before zshrc. It was added for KornShell fans. See the description of zlogin below for what it may contain.

zprofile and zlogin are not meant to be used concurrently but can be done so.

zshrc

This file is sourced by interactive shells. It should define aliases, functions, shell options, and key bindings.

zpreztorc

This file configures Prezto.

zlogin

This file is sourced by login shells after zshrc, and thus, it should contain commands that need to execute at login. It is usually used for messages such as fortune, msgs, or for the creation of files.

This is not the file to define aliases, functions, shell options, and key bindings. It should not change the shell environment.

zlogout

This file is sourced by login shells during logout. It should be used for displaying messages and the deletion of files.

Authors

The authors of these files should be contacted via the issue tracker.
