path should be set with -U, not -g afaiw.

Ok . . I'm trying to take the plunge, and I'm running into some
strangnesses that I can't explain. So, I did a chsh to change my
login shell to fish. And, when I first log in, things work really
strangely. type, whereis, and a few other scripts do not function
properly. BUT -- if I then exec, or shell fish again, they do.
And, my path is set completely differently. Ok -- so -- that could
just be some weird login -vs- interactive shell setting. I get that.
But, here's the really strange part. In my home directory's
config.fish, I have this snippet:
if [ -d ~/bin ]
echo "PATH before: " $PATH
set -g PATH $PATH ~/bin
echo "PATH after: " $PATH
end
So, if my ~/bin exists, it will be appended to the path. For the
login shell, this works. For all other shells, the code executes, but
the path does NOT change -- WTF?!?!?!
Here's what it looks like when I start with a login shell, then
manually run fish (even though "type" can't find it, it's still in the
path at /usr/local/bin/fish -- as shown by the executable "type").
WTF am I doing wrong?
