Subject: PATCH: more flexible cd builtin
Date: Mon, 13 Dec 1999 16:56:21 -0500	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <19991213165621.A2898@dman.com> (raw)

If the current directory is renamed, zsh's cd will fail because
it's attempting to change to the full path which no longer exists.
This allows one to cd to a subdirectory successfully.  This is
incomplete; `pwd` will become correct, but $PWD will not.
