The subject says it all, how to rehash the available executables available within one of the $PATHs after having changed things: e.g. removed a binary from one $PATH which is available in another $PATH, changed the $PATH-variable.

hash -r
is what needs to be done. In zsh it is rehash and rehash doesn't exist (by default) in bash.

I use both shells and rehash has been reinforced in my hind-brain for decades, it comes out of my fingers without asking. To accommodate those reflexes I have added alias rehash='hash -r'
to my .aliases_bash
file, which I test for and source from .bashrc
.
To summarize, in .bashrc
I use the line:
[[ -f ~/.aliases_bash ]] && . ~/.aliases_bash
and in /.aliases_bash
I use the line
alias rehash='hash -r'
rehash is also a cshell command. – macetw – 2019-06-19T18:22:21.190
