I'm trying to install it ( antigen ) but it complains that I already have a nvm installed ( well I do, but should I remove it ? )

It should work fine with existing nvm installs, have you commented out the line where you're manually sourcing nvm?

If you have can you paste the exact message you're getting?

I haven't commented out any lines.

Anyway I think the problem is that it is trying to install nvm, which I already have. Not sure I want to delete my .nvm, since I'm going to loose all my node installs

Ahhh, zsh-nvm requires that nvm has been installed via git.

Although it shouldn't be trying to install over your previous installation, it checks if nvm exists first with `[[ ! -f "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ]]`.

Out of interest what does: `[[ ! -f "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ]] && echo "nvm doesn't exist" || echo "nvm exists"` return?

If you wanna try it out you could backup your "$NVM_DIR/versions" folder and restore it. That holds all your node installs and global modules.

    λ ~ ◆ [[ ! -f "$NVM_DIR/nvm.sh" ]] && echo "nvm doesn't exist" || echo "nvm exists"
    nvm doesn't exist
    λ ~ ◆

Yeah, but tomorrow I'm GMT+2 :D

Strange...

Is it a symlink or something? Does `ls "$NVM_DIR"` list nvm.sh anywhere?

No :(

I've opened an issue, because I think we're polluting HN
