Subject: cdpath and empty string
Date: Wed, 7 Aug 2013 04:49:38 -0400 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20130807084938.GA94638@redoubt.spodhuis.org> (raw)
Finally got irritated enough to track down what's required to trigger
what looks like a zsh bug.
% mkdir /tmp/T1 /tmp/T2 /tmp/T2/T1
% zsh -f
redoubt% typeset -a cdpath
redoubt% cdpath=(/tmp/T1 '')
redoubt% cd /tmp/T2
redoubt% cd T1
/tmp/T1/T1
redoubt% pwd
/tmp/T2/T1
redoubt% echo $PWD
/tmp/T1/T1
redoubt% cd .
redoubt% echo $PWD
/tmp/T2/T1
If $cdpath has an empty string at the end (in my case, using
"${cdpath[@]}" instead of ${cdpath[@]} when prepending elements), then
"cd foo" for unqualified 'foo' which is only found relative to cwd will
always print $cdpath[1]/foo while cd'ing into ./foo.
$PWD is left corrupted, fixed by "cd ."; pwd is fine.
I haven't figured out where this is happening; I know it's in the C, but
reading the code I can't tell where and I need to get back to work
instead of continuing to investigate. :(
Any thoughts?
