Software, such as RVM (ruby version manager), may set chpwd functions
that result in an endless loop when cding.  chpwd functions should be
ignored.

Can you mention that this is abomination limited only to zsh
somewhere in the log message?  Or does bash share the same glitch?

If this is limited to zsh, I wonder if we can take advantage of the
fact that we have git-completion.bash and git-completion.zsh to
avoid contaminating shared part of the code.

Thanks.
