How to get the full path of the parent dir of a file in fish?
In fish, say I have a file path from somewhere:
/aaa/bbb/ccc.txt
How can I get the full path of its parent dir? So I will get:
/aaa/bbb

This is the dirname command, and it is a Unix utility, not specific to fish.
For example, cd (dirname /aaa/bbb/ccc.txt)
