Good to know; I think I assumed that.

In the linked commit from the original mail I explain the emulation mode: it is because the contributed Git completion script sets the emulation mode to ksh in order to leave most of the work to the bash completion scripts. I therefore (assume I) have to revert to zsh mode for _files to behave sensibly: not doing so produced a strange IIRC.

That’s probably a much better workaround than what I had, thanks. I’ve confirmed that it works. Is this documented anywhere that I can rely on?
