Scrub stale bitsentry alias during install - #9
Conversation
The installer runs under bash, so it has no visibility into zsh/fish alias tables -- a leftover alias bitsentry='/some/old/path' (from an earlier version of this script, or copied in via dotfiles) silently shadows the real launcher in interactive shells even after a completely successful install. Now strips any 'alias bitsentry=' line from the managed rc file before finishing, so "install complete" actually means the command works.

If your team needs uninterrupted high-volume reviews, an organization admin can enable usage-based reviews. How do review limits work?CodeRabbit enforces per-developer PR review limits for each organization. Most developers receive the normal plan review availability. For paid Pro and Pro+ PR reviews, CodeRabbit uses adaptive limits for sustained high-volume activity. When a developer's recent PR review activity reaches the 95th percentile or higher among CodeRabbit users, additional reviews become available more gradually as earlier reviews age out of the rolling window.

- Around line 265-271: Update the RC_FILE alias cleanup in the installer to
delete only provably standalone bitsentry alias declarations; preserve compound,
conditional, or continued-command lines and report that manual cleanup is
required. Apply the same safety rules to both Darwin and non-Darwin sed paths,
and add fixtures covering compound, conditional, and continued alias forms.
- Around line 267-271: Update the Darwin branch of the alias-removal logic near
the OS_NAME check to use a macOS-compatible sed expression, replacing the
unsupported BRE \+ repetition with the same effective whitespace matching used
by the non-Darwin branch. Keep the alias pattern and existing success flow
unchanged.

The previous fix deleted the whole matching line, which would have silently destroyed unrelated content on a compound (;), conditional (&&), or line-continuation (\) alias declaration sharing that line. Now only deletes a line if it's provably nothing but a standalone alias bitsentry=... declaration; anything else is left alone and reported so the user can clean it up by hand. Verified against 6 cases: standalone single/double-quoted (deleted), compound semicolon / conditional && / line continuation (all left untouched, all warned), and no-alias-present (no-op).
