Description: Since I upgraded zsh to version 5.7-1 I got this error on start:

VCS_INFO_detect_p4:79: maximum nested function level reached; increase FUNCNEST?

I'm using zsh + grml-zsh-config.

Additional info:
zsh 5.7-1
grml-zsh-config 0.15.3-1

Steps to reproduce:

Use zsh with grml-zsh-config and update zsh to version 5.7-1. And see...

Of course, downgrading zsh works and this error message disappears...

Related to this modification?

You can read on http://zsh.sourceforge.net/releases.html

vcs_info git: The gen-unapplied-string hook receives the patches in order (next to be applied first). This is consistent with the hg backend and with one of two contradictory claims in the documentation (the other one has been corrected). In zsh through 5.6.2, the patches were passed in reverse order, next to be applied being last in the array. The gen-applied-string hook is unaffected; it still receives the patches in reverse order, from last applied to first applied.

I generated an archlinux installation ISO with testing repositories enabled. Booted it in VirtualBox. I faced once again this bug :(

See attached screenshot. Looks like zsh 5.7 is kinda broken with grml-zsh enabled. I will try asap with a "naked" zsh.

Same problem here.

The issue was addressed upstream: http://www.zsh.org/mla/workers//2019/msg00058.html

I have applied the patch and released zsh-5.7-2. This should fix the issue.

Indeed, it is fixed. No more VCS-INFO... when opening a TTY or a terminal emulator. Thanks!
