broken rsync tab completion

Open mcandre opened this issue 1 year ago • 0 comments

Describe the bug

Something in the Oh my Zsh ecosystem recently broke how rsync works. The tab completion continues to produce old style triple backslashes (\\\) for special characters in remote file paths, such as spaces. However, rsync requires the --old-args flag to handle this.

How can we configure zsh tab completion to use the new way, single backslashes (\) instead?

Steps to reproduce

Rsync a remote file.

Expected behavior

Zsh should tab complete remote paths with single backslashes for special characters.
