I think it would be better to keep this condition ...

... and not bring in such magic with the indices here and ...

... here in these two case arms, but instead handle the cases both
with and without a subcommand in a unified case statement as I
suggested in reply to the previous patch.

These case arms are still quite repetitive, and could be handled by a
single arm like this:

        *,--*)
                __gitcomp_builtin stash_$subcommand
                ;;

Of course the more specific 'list,--*' and 'show,--*' cases should be
handled before.

The end result would look something like this (taken from a WIP patch
series of mine, which has been in a WIP state for about a year and a
half now...):
