direnv allow has no effect when i have a .envrc file

[coulonxyz]

Issue description

I'm running Ubuntu 18.04. This is a new installation.

When I issue the command direnv allow in a directory with a.envrc file, nothing happens:

➜  ts git:(master) ✗ ls .envrc 
.envrc
➜  ts git:(master) ✗ direnv allow .
➜  ts git:(master) ✗ cat .envrc    
export FOO=foo
➜  ts git:(master) ✗ echo $FOO

➜  ts git:(master) ✗ 

When there is no .envrc file, it complains though:

➜  Projects ls .envrc     
ls: cannot access '.envrc': No such file or directory
➜  Projects direnv allow .
direnv: error .envrc file not found

I've install direnv from apt-get and added the following line to .zshrc:

# direnv
eval "$(direnv hook bash)"

Steps to reproduce

New installation. install from apt-get and follow instructions

Technical details

• direnv version:v2.15.0
• OS release: Ubuntu 18.04

Well, it works with bash but not zsh... even if I have do the eval "manually", nothing happens when i get in the directory or type direnv allow.

@coulonxyz the hook is shell-specific, so it should be eval "$(direnv hook zsh)" bash => zsh

@coulonxyz, it is also explained in this section.
