I am working on Zsh 5.0.2 (latest stable version), and I noticed that:
dirs -v
and
cd -<TAB>
show a different list of directories (or at least directories in different order).
Moreover, it seems as if cd - shows oldest directories at the top, with the more recent directories at the bottom (exactly the opposite of what I want)
Why are these lists different, and how can I change the options of these lists?
You are moving from the right(to left) of the directory stack when using -. where as dirs -v prints the directory stack,in a list, from the left(to right). If you were to cd +<TAB> the completion would show in the same order as dirs -v. Using dirs without options, would give a more accurate visual representation of the stack and how you are rotating it with pushd & popd. If the pushd_minus option is set, the context of - and + are swapped.
man zshbuiltins and look for pushd for more information.
