__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

When the __git_refs() completion helper function lists refs from a

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/)"

Add support for dividing the refs of a single repository into multiple
namespaces, each of which can have its own branches, tags, and HEAD.
Git can expose each namespace as an independent repository to pull from
and push to, while sharing the object store, and exposing all the refs
to operations such as git-gc.
Storing multiple repositories as namespaces of a single repository
avoids storing duplicate copies of the same objects, such as when
storing multiple branches of the same source. The alternates mechanism
provides similar support for avoiding duplicates, but alternates do not
prevent duplication between new objects added to the repositories
without ongoing maintenance, while namespaces do.
To specify a namespace, set the GIT_NAMESPACE environment variable to
the namespace. For each ref namespace, git stores the corresponding
refs in a directory under refs/namespaces/. For example,
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo will store refs under refs/namespaces/foo/. You can
also specify namespaces via the --namespace option to git.
Note that namespaces which include a / will expand to a hierarchy of
namespaces; for example, GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar will store refs under
refs/namespaces/foo/refs/namespaces/bar/. This makes paths in
GIT_NAMESPACE behave hierarchically, so that cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo/bar produces the same result as cloning with
GIT_NAMESPACE=foo and cloning from that repo with GIT_NAMESPACE=bar. It
also avoids ambiguity with strange namespace paths such as
foo/refs/heads/, which could otherwise generate directory/file conflicts
within the refs directory.
Add the infrastructure for ref namespaces: handle the GIT_NAMESPACE
environment variable and --namespace option, and support iterating over
refs in a namespace.

Revert "completion: don't declare 'local words' to make zsh happy"
git-completion: fix regression in zsh support
completion: move private shopt shim for zsh to __git_ namespace
completion: don't declare 'local words' to make zsh happy
The zsh support of git-completion script in contrib/ is broken for current
versions of zsh, and does not notice when there's a subcommand.
For example: "git log origi<TAB>" gives no completions because it would
try to find a "git origi..." command. This will be fixed by zsh 4.3.12,
but for now we can workaround it by backporting the same fix as zsh folks
implemented.
The problem started after commit v1.7.4-rc0~11^2~2 (bash: get
--pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4), which introduced
_get_comp_words_by_ref() that comes from bash-completion[1] scripts, and
relies on the 'words' variable.
However, it turns out 'words' is a special variable used by zsh
completion. From zshcompwid(1):
[...] the parameters are reset on each function exit (including nested
function calls from within the completion widget) to the values they had
when the function was entered.
As a result, subcommand words are lost. Ouch.
This is now fixed in the latest master branch of zsh[2] by simply defining
'words' as hidden (typeset -h), which removes the special meaning inside
the emulated bash function. So let's do the same.

Most zsh users probably probably do not expect a custom shopt function
to enter their environment just because they ran "source
~/.git-completion.sh".
Such namespace pollution makes development of other scripts confusing
(because it makes the bash-specific shopt utility seem to be available
in zsh) and makes git's tab completion script brittle (since any other
shell snippet implementing some other subset of shopt will break it).
Rename the shopt shim to the more innocuous __git_shopt to be a good
citizen (with two underscores to avoid confusion with completion rules
for a hypothetical "git shopt" command).

The "_get_comp_words_by_ref -n := words" command from the
bash_completion library reassembles a modified version of COMP_WORDS
with ':' and '=' no longer treated as word separators and stores it in
the ${words[@]} array. Git's programmable tab completion script uses
this to abstract away the difference between bash v3's and bash v4's
definitions of COMP_WORDS (bash v3 used shell words, while bash v4
breaks at separator characters); see v1.7.4-rc0~11^2~2 (bash: get
--pretty=m<tab> completion to work with bash v4, 2010-12-02).
zsh has (or rather its completion functions have) another idea about
what ${words[@]} should contain: the array is prepopulated with the
words from the command it is completing. For reasons that are not
well understood, when git-completion.bash reserves its own "words"
variable with "local words", the variable becomes empty and cannot be
changed from then on. So the completion script neglects the arguments
it has seen, and words complete like git subcommand names. For
example, typing "git log origi<TAB>" gives no completions because
there are no "git origi..." commands.
However, when this words variable is not declared as local but is just
populated by _get_comp_words_by_ref() and then read in various
completion functions, then zsh seems to be happy about it and our
completion script works as expected.
So, to get our completion script working again under zsh and to
prevent the words variable from leaking into the shell environment
under bash, we will only declare words as local when using bash.

In v1.7.4-rc0~11^2~2 (bash: get --pretty=m<tab> completion to work
with bash v4, 2010-12-02) we started to use _get_comp_words_by_ref()
to access completion-related variables. That was large change, and to
make it easily reviewable, we invoked _get_comp_words_by_ref() in each
completion function and systematically replaced every occurance of
bash's completion-related variables ($COMP_WORDS and $COMP_CWORD) with
variables set by _get_comp_words_by_ref().
This has the downside that _get_comp_words_by_ref() is invoked several
times during a single completion. The worst offender is perhaps 'git
log mas<TAB>': during the completion of 'master'
_get_comp_words_by_ref() is invoked no less than six times.
However, the variables $prev, $cword, and $words provided by
_get_comp_words_by_ref() are not modified in any of the completion
functions, and the previous commit ensures that the $cur variable is
not modified as well. This makes it possible to invoke
_get_comp_words_by_ref() to get those variables only once in our
toplevel completion functions _git() and _gitk(), and all other
completion functions will inherit them.

This $cur variable is left unchanged in most completion functions;
there are only four functions modifying its value, namely __gitcomp(),
__git_complete_revlist_file(), __git_complete_remote_or_refspec(), and

If this variable were never modified, then it would allow us a nice

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.

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).

The bash prompt would display a commit's object name when having checked
out a lightweight tag. Provide `--tags` to `git describe` in the completion
script, so it will display lightweight tag names, as it already does for
annotated tags.

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.

Users can have their own pretty format aliases since 8028184 (pretty:
add aliases for pretty formats, 2010-05-02), so let's offer those
after '--pretty=' and '--format=' for 'log' and 'show', too.
Similar to the completion of aliases, this will invoke 'git config'
each time pretty aliases needs to be completed, so changes in pretty.*
configuration will be reflected immediately.

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).

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.

Add a notification in the command prompt specifying whether (and optionally how
far) your branch has diverged from its upstream. This is especially helpful in
small teams that very frequently (forget to) push to each other.
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
so inclined.

gitk aliases either start with "!gitk", or look something like "!sh -c
FOO=bar gitk", IOW they contain the "gitk" word. With this patch the
completion script will recognize these cases and will offer gitk's
options.
Just like the earlier change improving on aliased command recognition,
this change can also be fooled easily by some complex aliases, but
users of such aliases could remedy it with custom completion
functions.

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).

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.

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.
