How did you install nvm?

First by zsh-nvm then manually by git

What steps did you perform?

  • Install nvm >= v0.39.2 (works on nvm == v0.39.1)
  • Install any version (was trying to install --lts)

What happened?

nvm somehow dumps all of zsh config in the archive download URL, which of course is invalid and even trigger File name too long, source install seems to work

Full log

What did you expect to happen?

Working install

Is there anything in any of your profile files that modifies the PATH?

Yes

If you are having installation issues, or getting “N/A”, what does curl -I --compressed -v https://nodejs.org/dist/ print out?

Result of my bisection :

fb4538b360a4ddd5d390442f3bfde9b3239b4413 is the first faulty commit, and indeed L variable has been introduced

Doing local L in my shell indeed prints the whole shell config

@ljharb After reading the code, I fail to understand the exact usage for that variable

Why are you needing to parse ls? To get the destination of a symlink, parsing ls is never a good idea, and readlink is the standard utility for it.

od resolves symlinks itself (and did since forever), eliminating the manual step of resolving a symlink

Even after unsetting L as an alias, it still fails

I tried in zsh --no-rc, and it works, but I still don’t know why it doesn’t happen with v0.39.1 in my regular environment

I am closing for now as not planned and when I’ll have time, I’ll bisect it, try to find the issue and post it here
