When you have random build artifacts in your build directory, left
behind by running "make" while on another branch, the "git help -a"
command run by __git_list_all_commands in the completion script that
is being tested does not have a way to know that they are not part
of the subcommands this build will ship. Such extra subcommands may
come from the user's $PATH. They will interfere with the tests that
expect a certain prefix to uniquely expand to a known completion.
Instrument the completion script and give it a way for us to tell
what (subset of) subcommands we are going to ship.
Also add a test to "git --help <prefix><TAB>" expansion. It needs
to show not just commands but some selected documentation pages.

When commit d8b45314 began separating the zsh completion from the bash

completion script for zsh users to use until they migrated to the zsh

CentOS 4.x from loading the completion script and breaks test 9902. We can

The git-completion.bash script did not implemented full, git aware,
support to complete paths, for git commands that operate on files within
the current working directory or the index.
As an example:
git add <TAB>
will suggest all files in the current working directory, including
ignored files and files that have not been modified.
Support path completion, for git commands where the non-option arguments
always refer to paths within the current working directory or the index,
as follows:
* the path completion for the "git rm" and "git ls-files"
commands will suggest all cached files.
* the path completion for the "git add" command will suggest all
untracked and modified files. Ignored files are excluded.
* the path completion for the "git clean" command will suggest all
untracked files. Ignored files are excluded.
* the path completion for the "git mv" command will suggest all cached
files when expanding the first argument, and all untracked and cached
files for subsequent arguments. In the latter case, empty directories
are included and ignored files are excluded.
* the path completion for the "git commit" command will suggest all
files that have been modified from the HEAD, if HEAD exists, otherwise
it will suggest all cached files.
For all affected commands, completion will always stop at directory
boundary. Only standard ignored files are excluded, using the
--exclude-standard option of the ls-files command.
When using a recent Bash version, Git path completion will be the same
as builtin file completion, e.g.
git add contrib/
will suggest relative file names.

The user can be presented with invalid completion results
when trying to complete a 'git checkout' command. This can happen
when using a branch name prefix that matches multiple remote branches.
For example, if available branches are:
master
remotes/GitHub/maint
remotes/GitHub/master
remotes/origin/maint
remotes/origin/master
When performing completion on 'git checkout ma' the user will be
given the choices:
maint
master
However, 'git checkout maint' will fail in this case, although
completion previously said 'maint' was valid. Furthermore, when
performing completion on 'git checkout mai', no choices will be
suggested. So, the user is first told that the branch name
'maint' is valid, but when trying to complete 'mai' into 'maint',
that completion is no longer valid.
The completion results should never propose 'maint' as a valid
branch name, since 'git checkout' will refuse it.
The reason for this bug is that the uniq program only
works with sorted input. The man page states
"uniq prints the unique lines in a sorted file".
When __git_refs uses the guess heuristic employed by checkout for
tracking branches it wants to consider remote branches but only if
the branch name is unique. To do that, it calls 'uniq -u'. However
the input given to 'uniq -u' is not sorted.
Therefore, in the above example, when dealing with 'git checkout ma',
"__git_refs '' 1" will find the following list:
master
maint
master
maint
master
which, when passed to 'uniq -u' will remain the same. Therefore
'maint' will be wrongly suggested as a valid option.
When dealing with 'git checkout mai', the list will be:
maint
maint
which happens to be sorted and will be emptied by 'uniq -u',
properly ignoring 'maint'.
A solution for preventing the completion script from suggesting
such invalid branch names is to first call 'sort' and then 'uniq -u'.

Zsh's bash completion emulation is buggy, not properly maintained, and
we have some workarounds in place for different bugs that appeared in
various versions.
Since I'm the only one that has worked on that code lately[1], it might make
snese to use the code I wrote specifically for git.
The advantages are:
1) Less workarounds
* No need to hack __get_comp_words_by_ref
* No need to hack IFS or words
2) Improved features
* 'git show master' now properly adds a space at the end (IFS bug)
* 'git checkout --conflict=' now properly returns the sub-items
(missing feature)
3) Consolidated code
* It's all now in a single chunk, and it's basically the same as
git-completion.zsh
Since there's some interest in moving the zsh-specific code out of this
script, lets go ahead and warn the users that they should be using

Split a rather heavy-ish "git completion" script out to create a
separate "git prompting" script, to help lazy-autoloading of the
completion part while making prompting part always available.
The __gitdir() helper function finds out the path of the git
repository by running 'git rev-parse --git-dir'. However, it has a
shortcut first to avoid the overhead of running a git command in a
subshell when the current directory is at the top of the work tree,
i.e. when it contains a '.git' subdirectory.
If the 'GIT_DIR' environment variable is set then it specifies the
path to the git repository, and the autodetection of the '.git'
directory is not necessary. However, $GIT_DIR is only taken into
acocunt by 'git rev-parse --git-dir', and the check for the '.git'
subdirectory is performed first, so it wins over the path given in
$GIT_DIR.
There are several completion (helper) functions that depend on
__gitdir(), and when the above case triggers the completion script
will do weird things, like offering refs, aliases, or stashes from a
different repository, or displaying wrong or broken prompt, etc.
So check first whether $GIT_DIR is set, and only proceed with checking
the '.git' directory in the current directory if it isn't. 'git
rev-parse' would also check whether the path in $GIT_DIR is a proper
'.git' directory, i.e. 'HEAD', 'refs/', and 'objects/' are present and
accessible, but we don't have to be that thorough for the bash prompt.
And we've lived with an equally permissive check for '.git' in the
current working directory for years anyway.

bash-completion 1.90 shipped with support to load completions
dynamically[1], which means the git completion script wouldn't be loaded
until the user types 'git <tab>'--this creates a problem to people using
__git_ps1(); that function won't be available when the shell is first
created.
For now distributions have workarounded this issue by moving the git
completion to the "compatdir"[2]; this of course is not ideal.
The solution, proposed by Kerrick Staley[3], is to split the git script
in two; the part that deals with __git_ps1() in one (i.e.
git-prompt.sh), and everything else in another (i.e.
git-completion.bash).
Another benefit of this is that zsh user that are not interested in the
bash completion can use it for their prompts, which has been tried
before[4].
The only slight issue is that __gitdir() would be duplicated, but this
is probably not a big deal.
So let's go ahead and move __git_ps1() to a new file.
While at this, I took the liberty to reformat the help text in the new
file.

The bash completion doesn't work when certain options to git itself are
specified, e.g. 'git --no-pager <TAB>' errors out with
error: invalid key: alias.--no-pager
The main _git() completion function finds out the git command name by
looping through all the words on the command line and searching for
the first word that is not a known option for the git command.
Unfortunately the list of known git options was not updated in a long
time, and newer options are not skipped but mistaken for a git command.
Such a misrecognized "command" is then passed to __git_aliased_command(),
which in turn passes it to a 'git config' query, hence the error.
Currently the following options are misrecognized for a git command:
-c --no-pager --exec-path --html-path --man-path --info-path
--no-replace-objects --work-tree= --namespace=
To fix this we could just update the list of options to be skipped,
but the same issue will likely arise, if the git command learns a new
option in the future. Therefore, to make it more future proof against
new options, this patch changes that loop to skip all option-looking
words, i.e. words starting with a dash.
We also have to handle the '-c' option specially, because it takes a
configutation parameter in a separate word, which must be skipped,
too.

"--exec-path" looks to the completion script like an unambiguous

declaring that we are done with completion; the user could be trying
to do
git --exec-path; # print name of helper directory
or
git --exec-path=/path/to/alternative/helper/dir <subcommand>
so the most helpful thing to do is to leave out the trailing space and
leave it to the operator to type an equal sign or carriage return

instead of only porcelain ones.
The root cause of this is because zsh versions from 4.3.0 to present
(4.3.15) do not correctly propagate the SH_WORD_SPLIT option into the
subshell in ${foo:=$(bar)} expressions. Because of this bug, the list of
all commands was treated as a single word in __git_list_porcelain_commands
and did not match any of the patterns that would usually cause plumbing to
be excluded.
With problematic versions of zsh, after running
emulate sh
fn () {
var='one two'
for v in $var; do echo $v; done
}
x=$(fn)
: ${y=$(fn)}
printing "$x" results in two lines as expected, but printing "$y" results
in a single line because $var is expanded as a single word when evaluating
fn to compute y.
So avoid the construct, and use an explicit 'test -n "$foo" || foo=$(bar)'
instead.

zsh adds a backslash (foo\ ) for each item in the COMPREPLY array if IFS
doesn't contain spaces. This issue has been reported[1], but there is no
solution yet.
This wasn't a problem due to another bug[2], which was fixed in zsh
version 4.3.12. After this change, 'git checkout ma<tab>' would resolve
to 'git checkout master\ '.
Aditionally, the introduction of __gitcomp_nl in commit a31e626
(completion: optimize refs completion) in git also made the problem
apparent, as Matthieu Moy reported.
The simplest and most generic solution is to hide all the changes we do
to IFS, so that "foo \nbar " is recognized by zsh as "foo bar". This
works on versions of git before and after the introduction of
__gitcomp_nl (a31e626), and versions of zsh before and after 4.3.12.
Once zsh is fixed, we should conditionally disable this workaround to
have the same benefits as bash users.

We use the 'read' command without -r, so that it treats '\' as an
escape character, in several places. This breaks the loop reading
refnames from git-for-each-ref in __git_refs() if there are refnames
such as "foo'bar", in which case for-each-ref helpfully quotes them as
$ git update-ref "refs/remotes/test/foo'bar" HEAD
$ git for-each-ref --shell --format="ref=%(refname:short)" "refs/remotes"
ref='test/foo'\''bar'
Interpolating the \' here will read "ref='test/foo'''bar'" instead, and
eval then chokes on the unbalanced quotes.
However, since none of the read loops _want_ to have backslashes
interpolated, it's much safer to use read -r everywhere.

__git_heads() was introduced in 5de40f5 (Teach bash about
git-repo-config., 2006-11-27), and __git_tags() in 88e21dc (Teach bash
about completing arguments for git-tag, 2007-08-31). As their name
suggests, __git_heads() is supposed to list only branches, and
__git_tags() only tags.
Since their introduction both of these functions consist of two
distinct parts. The first part gets branches or tags, respectively,
from a local repositoty using 'git for-each-ref'. The second part
queries a remote repository given as argument using 'git ls-remote'.
These remote-querying parts are broken in both functions since their
introduction, because they list both branches and tags from the remote
repository. (The 'git ls-remote' query is not limited to list only
heads or tags, respectively, and the for loop filtering the query
results prints everything except dereferenced tags.) This breakage
could be easily fixed by passing the '--heads' or '--tags' options or
appropriate refs patterns to the 'git ls-remote' invocations.
However, that no one noticed this breakage yet is probably not a
coincidence: neither of these two functions were used to query a
remote repository, the remote-querying parts were dead code already
upon thier introduction and remained dead ever since.
Since those parts of code are broken, are and were never used, stop
the bit-rotting and remove them.

Refspecs for branches in a remote repository start with 'refs/heads/',
so completing those refspecs with 'git config remote.origin.fetch
<TAB>' always offers 'refs/heads/' first, because that's the unique
part of the possible refspecs. But it does so only after querying the
remote with 'git ls-remote', which can take a while when the request
goes through some slower network to a remote server.
Don't waste the user's time and offer 'refs/heads/' right away for
'git config remote.origin.fetch <TAB>'.
The reason for putting 'refs/heads/' directly into COMPREPLY instead
of using __gitcomp() is to avoid __gitcomp() adding a trailing space.

__git_refs_remotes() is used to provide completion for refspecs to set
'remote.*.fetch' config variables for branches on the given remote.
So it's really only interested in refs under 'refs/heads/', but it
queries the remote for all its refs and then filters out all refs
outside of 'refs/heads/'.
Let 'git ls-remote' do the filtering.
Also remove the unused $cmd variable from __git_refs_remotes().

When the __git_refs() completion helper function lists refs from a
local repository, it usually lists the refs' short name, except when
it needs to provide completion for words starting with refs, because
in that case it lists full ref names, see 608efb87 (bash: complete
full refs, 2008-11-28).
Add the same functionality to the code path dealing with remote
repositories, too.

The remote-handling part of __git_refs() has a nice for loop and state
machine case statement to iterate over all words from the output of
'git ls-remote' to identify object names and ref names. Since each
line in the output of 'git ls-remote' consists of an object name and a
ref name, we can do more effective filtering by using a while-read
loop and letting bash's word splitting take care of object names.
This way the code is easier to understand and the loop will need only
half the number of iterations than before.

For a local repository the __git_refs() completion helper function
lists refs under 'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/', plus some special refs
like HEAD and ORIG_HEAD. For a remote repository, however, it lists
all refs.
Fix this inconsistency by specifying refs filter patterns for 'git
ls-remote' to only list refs under 'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/'.
For now this makes it impossible to complete refs outside of
'refs/(tags|heads|remotes)/' in a remote repository, but a followup
patch will resurrect that.

After a unique command or option is completed, in most cases it is a
good thing to add a trailing a space, but sometimes it doesn't make
sense, e.g. when the completed word is an option taking an argument
('--option=') or a configuration section ('core.'). Therefore the
completion script uses the '-o nospace' option to prevent bash from
automatically appending a space to unique completions, and it has the
__gitcomp() function to add that trailing space only when necessary.
See 72e5e989 (bash: Add space after unique command name is completed.,
2007-02-04), 78d4d6a2 (bash: Support unique completion on git-config.,
2007-02-04), and b3391775 (bash: Support unique completion when
possible., 2007-02-04).
__gitcomp() therefore iterates over all possible completion words it
got as argument, and checks each word whether a trailing space is
necessary or not. This is ok for commands, options, etc., i.e. when
the number of words is relatively small, but can be noticeably slow
for large number of refs. However, while options might or might not
need that trailing space, refs are always handled uniformly and always
get that trailing space (or a trailing '.' for 'git config
branch.<head>.'). Since refs listed by __git_refs() & co. are
separated by newline, this allows us some optimizations with
'compgen'.
So, add a specialized variant of __gitcomp() that only deals with
possible completion words separated by a newline and uniformly appends
the trailing space to all words using 'compgen -S " "' (or any other
suffix, if specified), so no iteration over all words is needed. But
we need to fiddle with IFS, because the default IFS containing a space
would cause the added space suffix to be stripped off when compgen's
output is stored in the COMPREPLY array. Therefore we use only
newline as IFS, hence the requirement for the newline-separated
possible completion words.
Convert all callsites of __gitcomp() where it's called with refs, i.e.
when it gets the output of either __git_refs(), __git_heads(),
__git_tags(), __git_refs2(), __git_refs_remotes(), or the odd 'git
for-each-ref' somewhere in _git_config(). Also convert callsites
where it gets other uniformly handled newline separated word lists,
i.e. either remotes from __git_remotes(), names of set configuration
variables from __git_config_get_set_variables(), stashes, or commands.
Here are some timing results for dealing with 10000 refs.
Before:
$ refs="$(__git_refs ~/tmp/git/repo-with-10k-refs/)"
$ time __gitcomp "$refs"
