Some plug-ins fail to update if using setopt GLOB_DOTS #49

Describe the bug

I'm not knowledgeable enough about Zsh and Git to understand why this occurs. For some reasons, using setopt GLOB_DOTS causes two of my plug-ins to fail to update with zpm u.

To Reproduce

  1. Use this .zshrc file:
if [[ ! -f ~/.zpm/zpm.zsh ]]; then
  git clone --recursive https://github.com/zpm-zsh/zpm ~/.zpm
fi
source ~/.zpm/zpm.zsh

# This seems to be the culprit. Commented for now, see explanations below.
# setopt GLOB_DOTS

zpm load zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-word
zpm load zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting
  1. Start a new Zsh instance:
Cloning into '/home/xfzv/.zpm'...

Install zpm-zsh/helpers ✔
Install zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-word ✔
Install zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting ✔
  1. Run exec zsh
  2. Run zpm u:
Upgrade zpm-zsh/helpers ✔
Upgrade @zpm ✔
Upgrade zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting ✔
Upgrade zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-word ✔
# All plugins update just fine, including the last two
  1. Uncomment setopt GLOB_DOTS in .zshrc and save the modifications

  2. Open a new Zsh instance and run zpm clean (since we've made some changes, as per:

    zpm/README.md

    Line 456 in 06e2630

    By default zpm will generate cache file at first run, but if you will change `~/.zshrc` this cache should be removed using `zpm clean` command
    )

  3. A master.zwc file appears in both

    • ~/.zpm/plugins/zdharma-continuum---fast-syntax-highlighting/.git/refs/heads/
    • ~/.zpm/plugins/zdharma-continuum---history-search-multi-word/.git/refs/heads/
  4. Run zpm u:

Can't upgrade zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting ✖
Upgrade @zpm ✔
Can't upgrade zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-word ✖
Upgrade zpm-zsh/helpers ✔

Manually running git pull in both directories also fails:

cd zdharma-continuum---fast-syntax-highlighting
git pull
fatal: bad object refs/heads/master.zwc
error: https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/fast-syntax-highlighting did not send all necessary objects

cd zdharma-continuum---history-search-multi-word
git pull
fatal: bad object refs/heads/main.zwc
error: https://github.com/zdharma-continuum/history-search-multi-word did not send all necessary objects
  1. Run:
rm -rf ~/.zpm/plugins/zdharma-continuum---fast-syntax-highlighting/     \
       ~/.zpm/plugins/zdharma-continuum---history-search-multi-word/    \
       /tmp/zsh-1000/
  1. Comment setopt GLOB_DOTS in .zshrc and save the modifications.
  2. Open a new Zsh instance and repeat step 4 (run zpm u): both plugins update just fine.

Expected behavior

These two plug-ins are updated just like the others (possibly by avoiding main.zwc creation in both plug-ins repos?)

Additional context

No issue with the other Zsh plugins managers I've tried, the main.zwc file isn't created for any plug-in, including these two.

Hopefully you can reproduce.
