Here is how to link them. Run this command once to append the loading instructions to your .bash_profile:

Bash

echo -e "\n# Load .bashrc if it exists\nif [ -f ~/.bashrc ]; then\n    source ~/.bashrc\nfi" >> ~/.bash_profile

Once you’ve done that, force the terminal to read your config right now without having to disconnect:

Bash

source ~/.bashrc

Try running pa optimize:clear again. It should immediately map to php artisan optimize:clear.
