Sorry, replying to all this time:
I can actually reproduce this without vagrant.
>From skimming the source, vagrant expands to something like:
ssh -t <host> "/bin/bash -c '<command>'"
so, my equivalent function is:
function x_test
ssh -t <HOST> "/bin/bash -c 'echo hi'" ^ /dev/null
end
If i define this, and run it. I get the same behaviour as you.
The thing here is that vagrant adds the '-t' (as I guessed earlier)
This causes ssh to allocate a new PTY (when stdin isn't interactive) and
for some reason this causes fish to background the job
In my example, I get the following:
~> x_test
hi
~> echo "HI:"(x_test)
[blank line]
%~> jobs
Job Group State Command
3 10976 stopped ssh -t XXX "/bin/bash -c 'echo hi'" ^ /dev/null
%~> fg
Send job 3, 'ssh -t XXX "/bin/bash -c 'echo hi'" ^ /dev/null' to foreground
~>
(in my prompt % indicates stopped jobs)
So, adding a '-T' to the vagrant ssh command should fix this
