Commit 0065236 (bash completion: complete variable names for "git config" with options 2009-05-08) implemented its config variable search wrong. When a config contains a value with a space and a period (.) in it, completion erroneously thinks that line in the configuration is multiple config variables. For example $ cat .git/config format.cc = Junio C Hamano <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> $ git config --unset <TAB> format.cc <gitster@xxxxxxxxx> Instead of using a for loop splitting across spaces, pipe each line to a while read loop and beef up the case statement to match only 'config.variable=value'.
