Oh, no, there is no "believing" needed.

Have you fed your patches to those folks who have dozens of issues and the patches made their life better? It does not help much to make me look at these forums; we need some way to make those in these forums aware of your improvements, try them out and report success, to help the wider range of users who are not even in these forums and struggling with their zsh-completion use (they will get their zsh/git completion from their distros---I am assuming that the distros get theirs from us in contrib/completion/).

No, thanks.  I am not a zsh user, and have no plan to become one ;-)
