Documentation: Custom Themes > Clone entire repo

Describe the bug

In the documentation, for custom themes, the section where a command is given for cloning entire repo is incorrect. It didn't work for me, and the issue wasn't obvious.

Command I mentioned above:

cd ~/.warp/
git clone https://github.com/warpdotdev/themes.git

The issue:
Since the above command is a set of two commands, if ~/.warp directory doesn't already exist, the first command cd ~/.warp would fail but since no shorthand operator like && is used in this command in the docs, the next command would run just fine and the github repo for themes will be cloned in a directory called /themes at pwd. Instead, maybe add a shorthand or maybe create the ~/.warp directory first before running both the commands?

Possible Fix #1:

cd ~/.warp/ && git clone https://github.com/warpdotdev/themes.git

Possible Fix #2:

mkdir ~/.warp
cd ~/.warp/
git clone https://github.com/warpdotdev/themes.git

To reproduce

1. Make sure ~/.warp is deleted.
2. Run the following commands in the terminal

cd ~/.warp/
git clone https://github.com/warpdotdev/themes.git

3. Notice you're still in the same directory.
4. This would fail to install the themes in Warp.

Does this block you from using Warp daily?

No

Is this a Warp specific issue? (i.e. does it happen in Terminal, iTerm, Kitty, etc.)

Yes, this I confirmed this only happens in Warp, not other terminals.

Hi @mudittiwari2000 thanks for letting us know. checking to confirm, but I think ~/.warp folder may not be automatically created upon installing Warp for Mac. If this is the case, you're correct and we need to update that command to include making the dir. I'll post updates to this thread.

Updated the custom themes docs to include making the directory before cd and clone repo.
Thanks for helping to make our docs a bit better!
