I can't reproduce your issue with a trivial test: $ . ./sample 4.2.8(75)-maint $ type foo foo is a function foo () { echo foo } $ ce sample [MODIFY SAMPLE HERE] $ . ./sample 4.2.8(75)-maint $ type foo foo is a function foo () { echo bar } Maybe run `set -x' before sourcing the modified file to see what's going on.
