AFAIK it's the reverse: tcsh is more popular than fish. Also there's
csh:

https://qa.debian.org/popcon.php?package=tcsh

which is another C-shell.

This would be a significant difference between how ssh-agent under fish
would work vs how it works with other shells. It seems superficially
convenient, but IMO it would be a bad idea as it would break things
like ssh forwarded agents.

(None of this is should be interpreted as an agreement to implement
fish support in ssh-agent, I'm just trying to bring some data to the
decision)
