How do I unset a variable in the fish shell?

In bash I can unset a variable with

unset myvar

In fish I get

fish: Unknown command 'unset'

What's the equivalent for unset in fish.

Fish uses options on the set command to manipulate shell variables.

Unset a variable with the -e or --erase option.

set -e myvar

Additionally you can define a function

function unset
  set --erase $argv
end

funcsave unset

or an abbreviation

abbr --add unset 'set --erase'

or an alias in ~/.config/fish/config.fish

alias unset 'set --erase'
