NAME
pushd - push directory to directory stack

SYNOPSIS
pushd DIRECTORY

DESCRIPTION

The pushd function adds DIRECTORY to the top of the directory stack <#directory-stack> and makes it the current working directory. popd <> will pop it off and return to the original directory.

Without arguments, it exchanges the top two directories in the stack.

pushd +NUMBER rotates the stack counter-clockwise i.e. from bottom to top

pushd -NUMBER rotates clockwise i.e. top to bottom.

The -h or --help option displays help about using this command.

EXAMPLE

            cd ~/dir1
            pushd ~/dir2
            pushd ~/dir3
            # Working directory is now ~/dir3
            # Directory stack contains ~/dir2 ~/dir1

            pushd /tmp
            # Working directory is now /tmp
            # Directory stack contains ~/dir3 ~/dir2 ~/dir1

            pushd +1
            # Working directory is now ~/dir3
            # Directory stack contains ~/dir2 ~/dir1 /tmp

            popd
            # Working directory is now ~/dir2
            # Directory stack contains ~/dir1 /tmp
