I can only reproduce this in Zsh, not with Bash (using equivalent commands), though the caching behavior comes from Bash (fad9484f0a (completion: cache the path to the repository, 2017-02-03)). For example (with Zsh): mkdir a b b/c for d (a b); git -C $d init && git -C $d commit --allow-empty -m init cd a git branch foo pushd ../b/c git branch bar git rebase <TAB>… # completion for bar available; C-c to abort declare -p __git_repo_path # outputs /path/to/b/.git popd git branch # outputs foo, main git rebase <TAB>… # completion candidates are bar, main! I've only been able to observe this with rebase so far (e.g., using switch instead doesn't seem to trigger the problem). I wonder if all callers of __git_find_repo_path should declare `local __git_repo_path`? That might defeat some caching, but I don't think __git_repo_path should be set globally in a shell session, and the script is explicitly intended to be sourced… again, though, I think Bash does the correct thing and somehow Zsh is capturing this variable that it shouldn't be. -- D.
