Having scanned the discussion threads so far, I think the last four
patches are going against the list consensus of (1) it is OK to rely
on --git-completion-helper; using ancient Git with new completion
script won't obviously work, but that is "if it hurts, don't". (2)
some subcommands will fail the --git-completion-helper request
(e.g. outside a repository), but as long as the output from failed
request is not cached, it is OK.

But we haven't seen any response to the earlier zsh specific
patches.  Does it mean that nobody other than Felipe cares about
having a working Git completion for zsh?  Or does it mean that all
users other than Felipe are happy with the current Git completion
for zsh and it works very well for them already?  Or somewhere in
between?

What I am trying to get at is if we would want to keep the earlier
zsh parts of the series, but with nobody seemingly interested in, it
is hard for me to justify queuing them.

Thanks.
