Prezto is the configuration framework for Zsh; it enriches the command line interface environment with sane defaults, aliases, functions, auto completion, and prompt themes.
Prezto's original maintainer abandoned the project. This is a young, community-maintained fork, which was created in December 2016.
To upgrade your Prezto installation to use the new fork, run these commands:
cd "${ZDOTDIR:-$HOME}/.zprezto"
git remote set-url origin https://github.com/zsh-users/prezto.git
git pull
git submodule update --init --recursive
This assumes a typical installation. If you have forked or modified the project your steps may vary.
Prezto will work with any recent release of Zsh, but the minimum required version is 4.3.17.
