I really don't know how I can debug this? With this: . ~/.git-completion.bash ~ is *sometimes* expanded wrongly: With this: while [ ! ~ = $HOME ] ; do echo "$0: !!! ~ =! \$HOME" >&2 done . ~/.git-completion.bash I *sometimes* see an endless loop. With this: while [ ! ~ = $HOME ] ; do echo "$0: !!! ~ =! \$HOME" ~ $HOME >&2 done . ~/.git-completion.bash I see no error. I have a script that I run under mintty.
