CachyOS Git Migration is done!
The updates do not stop, so as long as everything works as expected, it is a priority but not so relevant in the short term. Now, after solving this kind of inconveniences, it would be necessary to do a better wiki, giving explanations about why fish and alacritty were chosen. Add a more extensive guide about Linux Gaming in Cachy, and some extra configurations. Keep it up, cachyOS is very promising.
