Definition 4.33.9. Let $\mathcal{C}$ be a category. The $2$-category of fibred categories over $\mathcal{C}$ is the sub $2$-category of the $2$-category of categories over $\mathcal{C}$ (see Definition 4.32.1) defined as follows:

  1. Its objects will be fibred categories $p : \mathcal{S} \to \mathcal{C}$.

  2. Its $1$-morphisms $(\mathcal{S}, p) \to (\mathcal{S}', p')$ will be functors $G : \mathcal{S} \to \mathcal{S}'$ such that $p' \circ G = p$ and such that $G$ maps strongly cartesian morphisms to strongly cartesian morphisms.

  3. Its $2$-morphisms $t : G \to H$ for $G, H : (\mathcal{S}, p) \to (\mathcal{S}', p')$ will be morphisms of functors such that $p'(t_ x) = \text{id}_{p(x)}$ for all $x \in \mathop{\mathrm{Ob}}\nolimits (\mathcal{S})$.

In this situation we will denote

\[ \mathop{\mathrm{Mor}}\nolimits _{\textit{Fib}/\mathcal{C}}(\mathcal{S}, \mathcal{S}') \]

the category of $1$-morphisms between $(\mathcal{S}, p)$ and $(\mathcal{S}', p')$
