Can you try with chezmoi --use-builtin-git add file?

To be able to debug this further, we need the output of chezmoi doctor.

@wereket please us a provided issue template when opening an issue because they ask for important information that we need when investigating problems. If you do not do this you are wasting our time.

chezmoi --use-builtin-git add bookmarks.html chezmoi: unknown command "bookmarks.html" for "chezmoi"

This cannot be the command you typed as the output does not match the command.

What is the output of:

chezmoi --debug add file

From looking at what you have reported so far, I suspect that you have messed up your shell configuration and strange things are happening when you try to run chezmoi.

sorry it was an error from my side, somehow it was related from me adding .emacs.d
