Subject: bash completion only provides revs, not paths
Date: Tue, 22 Apr 2008 13:21:29 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20080422112129.GA30923@digi.com> (raw)

Hello,

currently autocompletion in 

	ukleinek@zentaur:~/gsrc/linux-2.6 git log ar<tab>

only yields "armltd/" (i.e. the prefix of some remote tracking branches)
but most of the time I want it to complete to "arch/".

I don't understand that autocompletion stuff, but probably to fix that
several __git_complete_revlist should be replaced by a
__git_complete_revlist_or_path.  The harder part is to implement the
latter function.  An optimal implementation would only give back paths
if there is a "--" somewhere before the cursor.

Best regards
Uwe
