.oh-my-zsh/plugins/git/git.plugin.zsh:local:2: not valid in this context: git_cmd^M

After the latest upgrade_oh_my_zsh, I got this error and the git plugin didn't work.

Can you be more specific about the errors you're seeing? When do you see that error message?

As an experiment, delete line 2 of plugins/git/git.plugin.zsh, where it says local git_cmd. Does that fix it?

[apjanke]

Also, check to make sure you don't have a DOS-mode file for plugins/git/git.plugin.zsh for some reason, if you're on a non-DOS system. I think ^M is \r, and I can reproduce this error by running some bogus DOS-mode text on my OS X 10.9 system.

$ eval $(printf 'local git_cmd\r')
local: not valid in this context: git_cmd^M

And if I unix2dos plugins/git/git.plugin.zsh, then I get that error message upon starting a shell session.

Not sure if this is related, but I just updated and now whenever I open a new shell I get git_cmd=git and then my normal prompt, e.g.,

git_cmd=git
$

It's related; that top-level local was added in a recent update to the git plugin. There's an outstanding PR #3962 to fix it.

This problem is solved now, the reason is that I set my git line endings incorrectly.
On Mac OS X 10.10.3:

$ cd ~/.oh-my-zsh
$ git reset --hard cffeefde903149df8ef48224fedf5205cb2497c3
$ git config --global core.autocrlf input
$ git pull
