Oh, I see. Sorry for the noise, then. Great to see that it's fixed already.

This looks right.

I'm unable to reproduce this using the code from the devel branch:

bash-4.4$
GNU bash, version 4.4.12(3)-maint (x86_64-unknown-linux-gnu)
bash-4.4$ . on
bash-4.4$ bind -V | grep ignore-case
completion-ignore-case is set to `on'
bash-4.4$ foo
zoo  noo  boo
bash-4.4$ . off
bash-4.4$ bind -V | grep ignore-case
completion-ignore-case is set to `off'
bash-4.4$ foo
zoo  noo  boo
bash-4.4$ cat on
bind "set completion-ignore-case on"

_foo() {
COMPREPLY=( zoo noo boo )
return 0
}

complete -o nosort -F _foo foo
bash-4.4$ cat off
bind "set completion-ignore-case off"

_foo() {
COMPREPLY=( zoo noo boo )
return 0
}

complete -o nosort -F _foo foo
bash-4.4$ git rev-parse HEAD

I think this was fixed as a consequence of the following thread:
https://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/bug-bash/2017-03/msg00092.html

In this commit:

Ignore-case option to readline disables nosort option to complete

2017-05-03 Thread Jesper Nygårds 
The following snippet is shows that if the readline
option completion-ignore-case is turned on, the nosort option to complete
has no effect:

bind "set completion-ignore-case on"

_foo() {
COMPREPLY=( zoo noo boo )
return 0
}

complete -o nosort -F _foo foo

With the ignore-case option turned on, completion on foo gives "boo noo
zoo", i.e. in alphabetical order. If the ignore-case is not turned on,
completion on foo gives the intended order "zoo noo boo".

It seems to me that this is not ideal: it would be nice to have both
case-insensitive completion AND the possibility to keep the intended order
for alternatives.
