Troubleshooting

Asked for GitHub user and password when installing bundles

This often happens when a github url is wrong/invalid. Do check your bundle's url, often in the form of:

https://github.com/<bundle/name>.git

In your browser before trying it again.

My bundles won't update!

Please note that Antigen uses a caching mechanism in order to provide good load performance. This is done by compiling your configurations/bundles. If you're testing our configuration/bundles you may have to configure Antigen to auto-detect your changes this way:

typeset -a ANTIGEN_CHECK_FILES=(/path/to/.zshrc /path/to/.antigenrc)

Where you're indicating Antigen to look for changes in those files in order to re-load configuration from scratch.

You may as well disable caching by setting up ANTIGEN_CACHE environment variable to false:

ANTIGEN_CACHE=false

(This is available from v2.1.0 and up).

Alternatively you may use antigen reset command.

Completions won't work!

This is usually due to .zcompdump* broken in some way. Clean up this file with:

rm ~/.zcompdump*

(alternatively: `antigen reset`)

and start a new shell.

Your completions should be regenerated and available for use.
