I'm rather surprised that you didn't manage to turn this up on your own,
though; since it's a shell question, I would think it would be obvious to
look in the shell's man page. From the sh(1) man page on a -stable system:
unset name ...
The specified variables and functions are unset and unexported.
If a given name corresponds to both a variable and a function,
both the variable and the function are unset.
I know you already found the answer; I'm just marveling that you asked
the list in the first place.
