1d66ec587e bash: complete 'git diff ...branc<TAB>'
While doing a final sanity check before merging a topic Bsomething, it
is a good idea to review what damage Bsomething branch would make, by
running:

    $ git diff ...Bsomething

Unfortunately, our completion script for 'git diff' doesn't offer
anything after '...'.  This is because 'git diff's completion function
invokes __git_complete_file() for non-option arguments to complete the
'<tree>:<path>' extended SHA-1 notation, but this helper function
doesn't support refs after '...' or '..'.  Completion of refs after
'...' or '..' is supported by the __git_complete_revlist() helper
function, but that doesn't support '<tree>:<path>'.

To support both '...<ref>' and '<tree>:<path>' notations for 'git
diff', this patch, instead of adding yet another helper function,
joins __git_complete_file() and __git_complete_revlist() into the new
common function __git_complete_revlist_file().  The old helper
functions __git_complete_file() and __git_complete_revlist() are
changed to be a direct wrapper around the new
__git_complete_revlist_file(), because they might be used in
user-supplied completion scripts and we don't want to break them.

This change will cause some wrong suggestions for other commands which
use __git_complete_file() ('git diff' and friends) or
__git_complete_revlist() ('git log' and friends), e.g. 'git diff
...master:Doc<TAB>' and 'git log master:Doc<TAB>' will complete the
path to 'Documentation/', although neither commands make any sense.
However, both of these were actively wrong to begin with as soon as
the user entered the ':', so there is no real harm done.

the previous patch (bash: get --pretty=m<tab> completion to work with

da48616f1d bash: get --pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4
Bash's programmable completion provides the COMP_WORDS array variable,
which holds the individual words in the current command line.  In bash
versions prior to v4 "words are split on shell metacharacters as the
shell parser would separate them" (quote from bash v3.2.48's man
page).  This behavior has changed with bash v4, and the command line
"is split into words as readline would split it, using COMP_WORDBREAKS
as" "the set of characters that the readline library treats as word
separators" (quote from bash v4's man page).

Since COMP_WORDBREAKS contains the characters : and = by default, this
behavior change in bash affects git's completion script.  For example,
before bash 4, running

	$ git log --pretty=m <tab><tab>

would give a list of pretty-printing formats starting with 'm' but now
it completes on branch names.

It would be possible to work around this by removing '=' and ':' from
COMP_WORDBREAKS, but as noticed in v1.5.6.4~9^2 (bash completion:
Resolve git show ref:path<tab> losing ref: portion, 2008-07-15), that
would break *other* completion scripts.  The bash-completion library
includes a better workaround: the _get_comp_words_by_ref function
re-assembles a copy of COMP_WORDS, excluding a collection of word
separators of the caller's choice.  Use it.

As a bonus, this also improves behavior when tab is pressed with the
cursor in the middle of a word.

To avoid breaking setups with the bash-completion library not already
loaded, if the _get_comp_words_by_ref function is not defined then a
shim that just reads COMP_WORDS will be used instead (no change from
the current behavior in that case).

Ever since commit 70c9ac2 (DWIM: "git checkout frotz" to "git checkout
-b frotz origin/frotz"), git checkout has supported a DWIM mode where
it creates a local tracking branch for a remote branch if just the name
of the remote branch is specified on the command-line and only one remote
has a branch with that name. Teach the bash completion script to understand
this DWIM mode and provide such remote-tracking branch names as possible
completions.

2a5da75579 bash: support more 'git notes' subcommands and their options
The current completion function for 'git notes' only supported the
'edit' and 'show' subcommands and none of their options.  This patch
adds support for all missing subcommands, options, and their arguments
(files or refs), if any.

The code responsible for completing subcommand looks different
compared to the completion functions of other git commands with
subcommands.  This is because of the '--ref <notes-ref>' option which
comes before the subcommand (i.e. git notes --ref <notes-ref> add).

06f44c3cc5 completion: make compatible with zsh
Modify git-completion.bash so that it also works with zsh when using
bashcompinit.  In particular:

declare -F
    Zsh doesn't have the same 'declare -F' as bash, but 'declare -f'
    is the same, and it works just as well for our purposes.

${var:2}
    Zsh does not implement ${var:2} to skip the first 2 characters, but
    ${var#??} works in both shells to replace the first 2 characters
    with nothing.  Thanks to Jonathan Nieder for the suggestion.

for (( n=1; "$n" ... ))
    Zsh does not allow "$var" in arithmetic loops.  Instead, pre-compute
    the endpoint and use the variables without $'s or quotes.

shopt
    Zsh uses 'setopt', which has a different syntax than 'shopt'.  Since
    'shopt' is used infrequently in git-completion, we provide
    a bare-bones emulation.

emulate -L bash
KSH_TYPESET
    Zsh offers bash emulation, which turns on a set of features to
    closely resemble bash. In particular, this enables SH_WORDSPLIT,
    which splits scalar variables on word boundaries in 'for' loops.
    We also need to set KSH_TYPESET, to fix "local var=$(echo foo bar)"
    issues.

The last set of options are turned on only in _git and _gitk.  Some of
the sub-functions may not work correctly if called directly.

Support git-svn upstream detection as a special case, as migrators from
centralised version control systems are especially likely to forget to push.

Support for other types of upstream than SVN should be easy to add if anyone is

8024ea60db bash: support user-supplied completion scripts for aliases
Shell command aliases can get rather complex, and the completion
script can not always determine correctly the git command invoked by
such an alias.  For such cases users might want to provide custom
completion scripts the same way like for their custom commands made
possible by the previous patch.

The current completion script does not allow this, because if it
encounters an alias, then it will unconditionally perform completion
for the aliased git command (in case it can determine the aliased git
command, of course).  With this patch the completion script will first
search for a completion function for the command given on the command
line, be it a git command, a custom git command of the user, or an
alias, and invoke that function to perform the completion.  This has
no effect on git commands, because they can not be aliased anyway.  If
it is an alias and there is a completion function for that alias (e.g.
_git_foo() for the alias 'foo'), then it will be invoked to perform
completion, allowing users to provide custom completion functions for
aliases.  If such a completion function can not be found, only then
will the completion script check whether the command given on the
command line is an alias or not, and proceed as usual (i.e. find out
the aliased git command and provide completion for it).

424cce832d bash: support user-supplied completion scripts for user's git commands
The bash completion script already provides support to complete
aliases, options and refs for aliases (if the alias can be traced back
to a supported git command by __git_aliased_command()), and the user's
custom git commands, but it does not support the options of the user's
custom git commands (of course; how could it know about the options of
a custom git command?).  Users of such custom git commands could
extend git's bash completion script by writing functions to support
their commands, but they might have issues with it: they might not
have the rights to modify a system-wide git completion script, and
they will need to track and merge upstream changes in the future.

This patch addresses this by providing means for users to supply
custom completion scriplets for their custom git commands without
modifying the main git bash completion script.

Instead of having a huge hard-coded list of command-completion
function pairs (in _git()), the completion script will figure out
which completion function to call based on the command's name.  That
is, when completing the options of 'git foo', the main completion
script will check whether the function '_git_foo' is declared, and if
declared, it will invoke that function to perform the completion.  If
such a function is not declared, it will fall back to complete file
names.  So, users will only need to provide this '_git_foo' completion
function in a separate file, source that file, and it will be used the
next time they press TAB after 'git foo '.

There are two git commands (stage and whatchanged), for which the
completion functions of other commands were used, therefore they
got their own completion function.

c63437cbd7 bash: improve aliased command recognition
To support completion for aliases, the completion script tries to
figure out which git command is invoked by an alias.  Its
implementation in __git_aliased_command() is rather straightforward:
it returns the first word from the alias.  For simple aliases starting
with the git command (e.g. alias.last = cat-file commit HEAD) this
gives the right results.  Unfortunately, it does not work with shell
command aliases, which can get rather complex, as illustrated by one
of Junio's aliases:

[alias]
    lgm = "!sh -c 'GIT_NOTES_REF=refs/notes/amlog git log \"$@\" || :' -"

In this case the current implementation returns "!sh" as the aliased
git command, which is obviosly wrong.

The full parsing of a shell command alias like that in the completion
code is clearly unfeasible.  However, we can easily improve on aliased
command recognition by eleminating stuff that is definitely not a git
command: shell commands (anything starting with '!'), command line
options (anything starting with '-'), environment variables (anything
with a '=' in it), and git itself.  This way the above alias would be
handled correctly, and the completion script would correctly recognize
"log" as the aliased git command.

Of course, this solution is not perfect either, and could be fooled
easily.  It's not hard to construct an alias, in which a word does not
match any of these filter patterns, but is still not a git command
(e.g.  by setting an environment variable to a value which contains
spaces).  It may even return false positives, when the output of a git
command is piped into an other git command, and the second gets the
command line options via $@, but options for the first one are
offered.  However, the following patches will enable the user to
supply custom completion scripts for aliases, which can be used to
remedy these problematic cases.
