This did not happen before i just updated this plugin and it keeps crashing it.

Experienced the same issue.

Did a quick bisect and looks like a66d6ae is the culprit.

The logs have the following lines repeated multiple times:

compadd:57: closing brace expected
compadd:52: parse error in command substitution
autocomplete:compadd:old:57: closing brace expected
autocomplete:compadd:old:52: parse error in command substitution

@Shraymonks thank you for saving me time before i went down the rabbit hole myself.

Would you know how i can revert to this commit for the time being until this gets fixed with zinit?

zinit ice commit=008caae;
zinit light marlonrichert/zsh-autocomplete

I have been trying to do it this way and there isn't any good documentation on zinit to actually know what to do.

[Shraymonks]

I don't use zinit but I'm guessing that's what ver is for after taking a quick look. Alternatively you can probably just checkout that commit wherever zinit installed zsh-autocomplete.

[redoxahmii]

That's how i am running it atm by checking out the commit.

Thank you for finding this! I was experiencing the crash when attempting git branch -a (specifically, immediately after typing the a). Here's my temporary fix, coming from a Homebrew install.

git clone https://github.com/marlonrichert/zsh-autocomplete.git
cd zsh-autocomplete

# If cloned  using `--depth 1` like the README suggests:
#     git fetch --unshallow

# Undo the commit for the affected file
git checkout a66d6ae6f7e703b1bf5ae57e48a7da3cf307aeab^ -- Functions/Init/.autocomplete__async;

Then update how it's sourced in .zshrc:

# source $HOMEBREW_PREFIX/share/zsh-autocomplete/zsh-autocomplete.plugin.zsh
source /path/to/zsh-autocomplete/zsh-autocomplete.plugin.zsh

I encountered the same issue on my Mac. I'm not sure, if the following will fix the issue on Arch aswell, but I added this line into my .zshrc before loading zsh-autocomplete:

# ~/.zshrc

# THIS IS THE IMPORTANT LINE TO ADD
setopt interactive_comments

# Load zsh-autocomplete via zinit
zinit light marlonrichert/zsh-autocomplete
# OR Load zsh-autocomplete using the method you prefer...

Got this solution from another issue.

Thanks a lot for this solution, setting that option also fixed all my crashes on parsing command parameters on my end :)

@NorinB I've been running it since by checking out the commit that was mentioned above and adding setopt works on Arch as well.
If you know what exactly does this option entail I would love to know as you've been using it for a longer time period.
