pushd

pushd is a shell utility (or shell snippet) that simplifies navigation in command-line environments by maintaining a stack of directories. Instead of manually changing directories, users can “push” into a new directory, automatically storing the current directory on a stack, then later “pop” back to it. This allows users to temporarily jump into deep folder hierarchies, do work, and then quickly return to previous contexts without needing to type long cd paths. The tool also supports listing the directory stack so you can see your navigation history and pick which directory to return to. It is especially useful in workflows involving nested file structures, multiple project layers, or frequent context switching across directories. pushd is often built into or emulated in shells (like bash, zsh) but this project wraps or enhances that behavior in a convenient, portable manner.
