Indeed, sorry about that. words[1] is being replaced by $@ rather than
appended-to, so you have to take one away from the increment.

} Yes, I am aware of that, and what I mean is more or less something in this
} regard, e.g. by making it handle command+arguments.
For other readers of this thread: Any input here on whether this is
actually a common use case?
} maybe a list could be used:
}
} compdef gsta=(git stash)
That would require that 'compdef' be made a keyword, otherwise that's a
syntax error. I don't think we're likely to embed compsys that deeply
into the shell syntax.
We could maybe do what some other compsys functions do:
compdef gsta='(git stash)'
Not sure what that would require of the lower-level code where the value
of the compdef is evaluated.
Probably the right way to approach this is to have a completer "_wrapper"
which looks up the replacement command via zstyle, fixes up $words etc.,
and then calls _complete. The potentially tricky part is preventing the
replacement from changing the context, i.e. adding syntactic tokens
like globbing or pipes, or at least failing gracefully in that event.
} I am using it with the following to automatically update a ctags tags file
This sounds more like a job for a git hook ... except there isn't one
for "stash".
