I have installed nvm via homebrew. I have followed through the caveats:
mkdir ~/.nvm
cp $(brew --prefix nvm)/nvm-exec ~/.nvm/
AddED to my .zshrc file:
export NVM_DIR=~/.nvm
source $(brew --prefix nvm)/nvm.sh
I have restarted my shell and when I type "which nvm" I get the file output instead of a file path locating the nvm version. I removed the package, reinstalled. All other "which" commands work.
Any insight is greatly appreciated.
File output after typing "which nvm":
nvm () {
if [ $# -lt 1 ]
then
nvm help
