direnv

Auto load env vars.

Hooks into your shell to auto-load/unload environment variables when you cd into a directory. Loads a simple .envrc file in each directory. First-run in each dir asks for permission to mitigate malicious execution. The .envrc file can just be a list of exports, but it is also a bash script which allows you to execute other code. A useful stdlib of utility functions is provided.
