It would be an improvement, but it's orthogonal to the regression you
are trying to fix.

I would just fix the regression for v2.32, and then afterwards try to do
the improvement.

I have a testing framework for the zsh completion in my git-completion
project, so I would be much more confident about this change if all the
tests pass. Alas I have not yet merged any v2.32.0-rc* so it's not
straightforward to run the tests now.

I mean there's git options, and git command options. I don't know how
many changes are needed to make all the interactions work correctly, but
I wouldn't have confidence in any of them so close to a release,
especially considering git.git doesn't have any zsh tests.

So yes, v4 is fine.

That will work correctly on git-completion once I merge your v4 patch
(and v2.32).
