When you have random build artifacts in your build directory, left
behind by running "make" while on another branch, the "git help -a"
command run by __git_list_all_commands in the completion script that
is being tested does not have a way to know that they are not part
of the subcommands this build will ship. Such extra subcommands may
come from the user's $PATH. They will interfere with the tests that
expect a certain prefix to uniquely expand to a known completion.
Instrument the completion script and give it a way for us to tell
what (subset of) subcommands we are going to ship.
Also add a test to "git --help <prefix><TAB>" expansion. It needs
to show not just commands but some selected documentation pages.
Based on an idea by Jeff King.

When commit d8b45314 began separating the zsh completion from the bash
completion, it introduced a zsh completion "bridge" section into the bash
completion script for zsh users to use until they migrated to the zsh
script. The zsh '+=()' append-to-array notation prevents bash 3.00.15 on
CentOS 4.x from loading the completion script and breaks test 9902. We can
easily work around this by using standard Bash array notation.

Rely on the upstream filetype.vim instead of duplicating its rules in
git's instructions for syntax highlighting support on pre-7.2 vim
versions.
The result is a shorter contrib/vim/README. More importantly, it lets
us punt on maintenance of the autocmd rules.
So now when we fix the upstream gitsendemail rule in light of commit
eed6ca7, new git users stuck on old vim reading contrib/vim/README can
automagically get the fix without any further changes needed to git.
Once the world has moved on to vim 7.2+ completely, we can get rid of
these instructions, but for now if they are this simple it's
effortless to keep them.

This version changes quite a few things:
1. The original parsed the mailmap file itself, and it did
it wrong (it did not understand entries with an extra
email key).
Instead, this version uses git's "%aE" and "%aN"
formats to have git perform the mapping, meaning we do
not have to read .mailmap at all, but still operate on
the current state that git sees (and it also works
properly from subdirs).
2. The original would find multiple names for an email,
but not the other way around.
This version can do either or both. If we find multiple
emails for a name, the resolution is less obvious than
the other way around. However, it can still be a
starting point for a human to investigate.
3. The original would order only by count, not by recency.
This version can do either. Combined with showing the
counts, it can be easier to decide how to resolve.
4. This version shows similar entries in a blank-delimited
stanza, which makes it more clear which options you are
picking from.

The description of __git_ps1 function operating in two-arg mode was
not very clear. It said "set PROMPT_COMMAND=__git_ps1" which is not
the right usage for this mode, followed by "To customize the prompt,
do this", giving a false impression that those who do not want to
customize it can get away with no-arg form, which was incorrect.
Make it clear that this mode always takes two arguments, pre and
post, with an example.
The straight-forward one should be listed as the primary usage, and
the confusing one should be an alternate for advanced users. Swap

For bash completion, the option '-o bashdefault' is used to indicate
that when no other choices are available, file completion should be
performed. Since this option is not available in tcsh, no file
completion is ever performed. Therefore, commands like 'git add ',
'git send-email ', etc, require the user to manually type out
the file name. This can be quite annoying.
To improve the user experience we try to simulate file completion
directly in this script (although not perfectly).
The known issues with the file completion simulation are:
- Possible completions are shown with their directory prefix.
- Completions containing shell variables are not handled.
- Completions with ~ as the first character are not handled.

tcsh users sometimes alias the 'git' command to another name. In
this case, the user expects to only have to issue a new 'complete'
command using the alias name.
However, the tcsh script currently uses the command typed by the
user to call the appropriate function in git-completion.bash, either
_git() or _gitk(). When using an alias, this technique no longer
works.
This change specifies the real name of the command (either 'git' or
'gitk') as a parameter to the script handling tcsh completion. This
allows the user to use any alias for the 'git' or 'gitk' commands,
while still getting completion to work.
A check for the presence of ${HOME}/.git-completion.bash is also
added to help the user make use of the script properly.

The user can be presented with invalid completion results
when trying to complete a 'git checkout' command. This can happen
when using a branch name prefix that matches multiple remote branches.
For example, if available branches are:
master
remotes/GitHub/maint
remotes/GitHub/master
remotes/origin/maint
remotes/origin/master
When performing completion on 'git checkout ma' the user will be
given the choices:
maint
master
However, 'git checkout maint' will fail in this case, although
completion previously said 'maint' was valid. Furthermore, when
performing completion on 'git checkout mai', no choices will be
suggested. So, the user is first told that the branch name
'maint' is valid, but when trying to complete 'mai' into 'maint',
that completion is no longer valid.
The completion results should never propose 'maint' as a valid
branch name, since 'git checkout' will refuse it.
The reason for this bug is that the uniq program only
works with sorted input. The man page states
"uniq prints the unique lines in a sorted file".
When __git_refs uses the guess heuristic employed by checkout for
tracking branches it wants to consider remote branches but only if
the branch name is unique. To do that, it calls 'uniq -u'. However
the input given to 'uniq -u' is not sorted.
Therefore, in the above example, when dealing with 'git checkout ma',
"__git_refs '' 1" will find the following list:
master
maint
master
maint
master
which, when passed to 'uniq -u' will remain the same. Therefore
'maint' will be wrongly suggested as a valid option.
When dealing with 'git checkout mai', the list will be:
maint
maint
which happens to be sorted and will be emptied by 'uniq -u',
properly ignoring 'maint'.
A solution for preventing the completion script from suggesting
such invalid branch names is to first call 'sort' and then 'uniq -u'.

Zsh's bash completion emulation is buggy, not properly maintained, and
we have some workarounds in place for different bugs that appeared in
various versions.
Since I'm the only one that has worked on that code lately[1], it might make
snese to use the code I wrote specifically for git.
The advantages are:
1) Less workarounds
* No need to hack __get_comp_words_by_ref
* No need to hack IFS or words
2) Improved features
* 'git show master' now properly adds a space at the end (IFS bug)
* 'git checkout --conflict=' now properly returns the sub-items
(missing feature)
3) Consolidated code
* It's all now in a single chunk, and it's basically the same as
git-completion.zsh
Since there's some interest in moving the zsh-specific code out of this
script, lets go ahead and warn the users that they should be using
git-completion.zsh.

There is no point going through all that pain; the emulation is easy to

emulation.

The current tcsh-completion support for Git, as can be found on the
Internet, takes the approach of defining the possible completions
explicitly. This has the obvious draw-back to require constant
updating as the Git code base evolves.
The approach taken by this commit is to to re-use the advanced bash
completion script and use its result for tcsh completion. This is
achieved by sourcing the bash script and outputting the completion
result for tcsh consumption.
Three solutions were looked at to implement this approach with (C)
being retained:
A) Modifications:
git-completion.bash and new git-completion.tcsh
Modify the existing git-completion.bash script to support
being sourced using bash (as now), but also executed using bash.
When being executed, the script will output the result of the
computed completion to be re-used elsewhere (e.g., in tcsh).
The modification to git-completion.bash is made not to be
tcsh-specific, but to allow future users to also re-use its
output. Therefore, to be general, git-completion.bash accepts a
second optional parameter, which is not used by tcsh, but could
prove useful for other users.
Pros:
1- allows the git-completion.bash script to easily be re-used
2- tcsh support is mostly isolated in git-completion.tcsh
Cons (for tcsh users only):
1- requires the user to copy both git-completion.tcsh and
git-completion.bash to ${HOME}
2- requires bash script to have a fixed name and location:
${HOME}/.git-completion.bash
B) Modifications:
git-completion.bash
Modify the existing git-completion.bash script to support
being sourced using bash (as now), but also executed using bash,
and sourced using tcsh.
Pros:
1- only requires the user to deal with a single file
2- maintenance more obvious for tcsh since it is entirely part
of the same git-completion.bash script.
Cons:
1- tcsh support could affect bash support as they share the
same script
2- small tcsh section must use syntax suitable for both tcsh
and bash and must be at the beginning of the script
3- requires script to have a fixed name and location:
${HOME}/.git-completion.sh (for tcsh users only)
C) Modifications:
New git-completion.tcsh
Provide a short tcsh script that generates another script
which extends git-completion.bash. This new script can be
used by tcsh to perform completion.
Pros:
1- tcsh support is entirely isolated in git-completion.tcsh
2- new tcsh script can be as complex as needed
Cons (for tcsh users only):
1- requires the user to copy both git-completion.tcsh and
git-completion.bash to ${HOME}
2- requires bash script to have a fixed name and location:
${HOME}/.git-completion.bash
3- sourcing the new script will generate a third script
Approach (C) was selected avoid any modification to git-completion.bash.
