Ok. It looks like it fires on every completion with no command (i.e. git
<TAB><TAB>). I don't particularly like my solution anyways, and this has
existed for a long time (56fc25f maybe?) with no one noticing. A fix for
it is probably not too pressing.

I found another problem, [ARGS] and COMMAND show up in git <TAB><TAB>.
Looks like it's due to the wrapping of git's usage string.

This sounds reasonable, but also like more work ;-)
