The __git_complete_refs uses the "--track" option to specify when to enable listing of unique remote branches which are used by the DWIM logic of git checkout and git switch. Using the term '--track' here is confusing because the git commands themselves have '--track' as an argument. Additionally, the completion logic for _git_switch also checks for --track. Keeping the meaning of track_opt and --track for __git_complete_refs straight from the --track git switch and git checkout option is difficult when reading this code. Use the option '--dwim' instead, indicating this is about enabling or disabling logic related to DWIM mode. Also rename the local variable track_opt to dwim_opt to further reduce the confusion when reading the completion code for _git_switch. Because it is plausible for users to have developed their own completions which rely on __git_complete_ref, keep --track as a synonym for --dwim, even though we no longer use it in any of the core git completion logic. Add a comment explaining why it remains as an alternative spelling for --dwim. Signed-off-by: Jacob Keller <jacob.keller@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com>maint
