Why doesn't 'sourcing' my .zshrc file change my aliases?
In my .zshrc file (as a oh-my-zsh user within a gnome DE on an Archlinux OS), I have the line:
alias ls='ls -c --color=never'
After I enter:source .zshrc
The command alias ls
outputs ls='ls --color=tty'
This happens even after closing my zsh terminal and reopening it.
I don't ever recall setting this current alias either, so I'm assuming that something takes precedence over my zshrc file, perhaps?
