fix(zsh): complete aliases with argument prefixes - #1330
Conversation
📝 WalkthroughWalkthroughThe generated zsh completion script now expands leading aliases before invoking the completion binary. A zsh integration test verifies the expanded command input and completion result. ChangesZsh alias completion
Estimated code review effort: 2 (Simple) | ~10 minutes Merge Risk: 🔵 Low · up to The Zsh alias-completion change can still fail when the command line begins with spaces or tabs, causing aliases not to expand and completion to operate on the wrong command line. This is a bounded, localized correctness risk that is mergeable with explicit owner awareness or follow-up. Suggested reviewers: Poem

- Around line 279-283: Update the alias-expansion loop around __usage_command
and __usage_input to skip leading spaces or tabs when extracting the first
command, while preserving that whitespace in the rebuilt __usage_input before
alias expansion. Add regression coverage for inputs with leading spaces and
leading tabs, verifying aliases expand before __complete_word__ receives the
line.

zsh documentation parameter expansion ${name%%pattern} longest matching suffix [[:space:]] glob
💡 Result:
In Zsh, the parameter expansion syntax ${name%%pattern} is used to remove the longest matching suffix from the value of the parameter name [1][2]. When this expression is evaluated: 1. The shell attempts to match the specified pattern against the end (suffix) of the string stored in name [1][2]. 2. The %% operator signifies that the shell should prefer the longest possible match [1][3]. If multiple suffixes match the pattern, the one that consumes the most characters is removed [4][3]. 3. If a match is found, the value of the parameter is returned with the matched suffix deleted; if no match is found, the original value of the parameter is returned [1][2]. Regarding the use of [[:space:]] in the pattern: - Patterns used in Zsh parameter expansion are the same as those used for filename generation (globbing) [5][6]. - [[:space:]] is a valid POSIX character class that matches any whitespace character. When used within a pattern—for example, ${name%%*[[:space:]]}—it will match the longest suffix ending in a whitespace character. - Note that in many configurations, you may need to ensure your shell options (such as EXTENDED_GLOB) are set appropriately if you intend to use advanced globbing features, though standard POSIX character classes like [[:space:]] are generally supported in Zsh pattern matching by default [5]. Example: If a variable contains trailing whitespace, you can remove it using: ${name%%[[:space:]]##} In this example, [[:space:]] matches whitespace, and the ## operator (within the glob pattern) makes the whitespace match greedy, effectively removing all trailing whitespace characters [5].

Handle leading whitespace before alias lookup.
When __usage_input starts with whitespace, ${__usage_input%%[[:space:]]*} can match and remove the entire input. For xa feature, __usage_command becomes empty, so xa is not expanded and __complete_word__ receives the unexpanded line. Parse the first non-whitespace word while preserving the original prefix in __usage_input. Add regression cases for leading spaces and tabs.

Summary
__complete_word__gfin="mise run git:finish-branch"Bash is unchanged because mise did not previously complete local Bash aliases. Fish is unchanged because its wrapper completion machinery already passes the expanded command line.
