Hello,

I'm using zsh 4.3.12 (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu) and have added the
"git-st" snippet shown below to my .zshrc file from the ZSH git
repository's Misc/vcs_info-examples file.  The problem is that
+vi-git-st() isn't being called automatically by vcs_info().

What am I doing wrong?

Thanks for your consideration.
