Description

Prezto throws a bunch of errors upon upon running it for the first time (and every subsequent time) after a fresh installation.

prompt_sorin_async_tasks:4: command not found: async_start_worker
prompt_sorin_async_tasks:5: command not found: async_register_callback
prompt_sorin_async_tasks:10: command not found: async_flush_jobs
prompt_sorin_async_tasks:13: command not found: async_job

AFAIK, none of the current maintainers use prezto on windows, so we aren't able to help debug unfortunately. If you do track it down further, we'd welcome either a code fix or docs improvement as appropriate.

Git for windows cannot create symlinks by default. Several scripts under modules/prompt/functions uses symlinks to link file in submodules and git for windows clone those as dummy files, you should replace those dummy files with symlinks (or just copy the scripts) manually

in fact,just change the command at project,./modules/prompt/functions, change "../external/async/async.zsh" (e.g) to "source ${ZPREZTODIR}/modules/prompt/external/async/async.zsh". then you can use it at windows.

This fixed my issue and wasn't easy to find via a web search on google. Maybe some comment in the README.md might be useful for people using msys2 on windows? Or point them at this issue as a proposed solution even if it's not ideal
