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.

Since git is not used in each and every interactive xterm, it
seems best to load completion support with cold caches and then
load each needed thing lazily. This has most of the speed
advantage of pre-generating everything at build time, without the
complication of figuring out at build time what commands will be
available at run time.
On this slow laptop, this decreases the time to load
git-completion.bash from about 500 ms to about 175 ms.

Before the --, always attempt ref completion. This helps with
entering the <treeish> arguments to git-grep. As a bonus, you can
work around git-grep's current lack of --all by hitting M-*, ugly as
the resulting command line may be.
Strictly speaking, completing the regular expression argument (or
option argument) makes no sense. However, we cannot prevent _all_
completion (it will fall back to filenames), so we dispense with any
additional complication to detect whether the user still has to enter
a regular expression.

Aliases with newlines have been a problem since commit 56fc25f (Bash
completion support for remotes in .git/config., 2006-11-05). The chance
of the problem occurring has been slim at best, until commit 518ef8f
(completion: Replace config --list with --get-regexp, 2009-09-11)
removed the case statement introduced by commit 56fc25f. Before removing
the case statement, most aliases with newlines would work unless they
were specially crafted as follows
[alias]
foo = "log -1 --pretty='format:%s\nalias.error=broken'"
After removing the case statement, a more benign alias like
[alias]
whowhat = "log -1 --pretty='format:%an <%ae>\n%s'"
wont-complete = ...
would cause the completion to break badly.
For now, revert the removal of the case statement until someone comes up
with a better way to get keys from git-config.

After commit 511a3fc (wrap git's main usage string., 2009-09-12), the
bash completion for git commands includes COMMAND and [ARGS] when it
shouldn't. Fix this by grepping more strictly for a line with git
commands. It's doubtful whether git will ever have commands starting

It is useful to grep directories non-recursively, e.g. when one wants to
look for all files in the toplevel directory, but not in any subdirectory,
or in Documentation/, but not in Documentation/technical/.
This patch adds support for --max-depth <depth> option to git-grep. If it is
given, git-grep descends at most <depth> levels of directories below paths
specified on the command line.
Note that if path specified on command line contains wildcards, this option
makes no sense, e.g.
$ git grep -l --max-depth 0 GNU -- 'contrib/*'
(note the quotes) will search all files in contrib/, even in
subdirectories, because '*' matches all files.

Commit 0065236 (bash completion: complete variable names for "git

wrong. When a config contains a value with a space and a period (.) in

multiple config variables.

$ git config --unset <TAB>
format.cc
<gitster@pobox.com>
