So here is an updated based on your patch.

Subject: [PATCH] git-completion.bash: zsh does not implement function
redirection correctly
A recent change added functions whose entire standard error stream
is redirected to /dev/null using a construct that is valid POSIX.1
but is not widely used:
funcname () {
funcbody
} 2>/dev/null
Even though this file is "git-completion.bash", zsh completion
support dot-sources it (instead of asking bash to grok it like tcsh
completion does), and zsh does not implement this redirection
correctly.
With zsh, trying to complete an inexistant directory gave this:
git add no-such-dir/__git_ls_files_helper:cd:2: no such file or directory: no-such-dir/
It is easy to work around by refraining from using this construct.
The correct thing to do in the longer term may be to stop dot-sourcing
the source meant for bash into zsh, but this patch should suffice as
a band-aid in the meantime.
