Steps to reproduce

  1. Navigate to the "Install Flutter" section of the Flutter macOS installation guide.
  2. Follow the command provided in the "Extract the zip file into the directory you want to store the Flutter SDK" section.
  3. Observe that the provided command is incorrect.

The command provided in the documentation does not correctly specify the destination directory for unzipping the Flutter SDK, causing confusion and potential installation failure. The command used is:

unzip ~/Downloads/flutter_macos_arm64_3.19.6-stable.zip ~/development/
Archive:  /Users/x/Downloads/flutter_macos_arm64_3.19.6-stable.zip
caution: filename not matched:  /Users/x/development/

The correct command should use the -d option to specify the destination directory, like so:

unzip ~/Downloads/flutter_macos_arm64_3.19.6-stable.zip -d ~/development/

Actual results

The command provided in the documentation does not correctly specify the destination directory for unzipping the Flutter SDK, causing confusion and potential installation failure.

Logs

Archive: /Users/x/Downloads/flutter_macos_arm64_3.19.6-stable.zip
caution: filename not matched: /Users/x/development/
