How to write a function to clone & then cd into the local repository?

[Jarmos-san]

I'm trying to create a function to clone a git remote repository on to my local machine & then cd into the local repository. So, any ideas how can I achieve what am I trying to do?

On Bash, the following snippet worked great for me (source):

 gclone () {
    git clone $1
    local ldir=`ls -t | head -1`
    echo $ldir
    cd $ldir
    pwd
 }

Please look at the documentation, in particular https://fishshell.com/docs/current/fish_for_bash_users.html.

In your case, this is simple enough to rewrite directly:

function gclone
    git clone $argv[1]
    set -l ldir (ls -t | head -1)
    echo $ldir
    cd $ldir
    pwd
end

However, it would scale a lot better if you read the documentation for yourself before you asked.
