Okay. I was not aware of these reasons. I am still very much a beginner
(both to zsh and to mailing lists ...).

The snippet below displays N/M. How would you make it display +N/-M
instead?

    git rev-parse @{upstream} >/dev/null 2>&1 || return 0
    local -a x=( $(git rev-list --left-right --count HEAD...@{upstream} ) )
    hook_com[misc]="${(j:/:)x}"

Why not do this instead:

    local -a x=( $(git rev-list --left-right --count HEAD...@{upstream} 2>/dev/null ) )
