You caught my attention. I don't personally like csh. In fact,
I'm actively working on a way to get us off of csh here at
$dayjob. Hence, I usually shy away from anything that
encourages csh usage.
That said, I'm a practical person. We've written a
git-completion.tcsh here so I figured I'd share.
Caveats -- it sucks! I'm pretty sure that this is due
to either a) csh's poor completion facilities, or b) my
inability to use it to its best ability. The thing that really
kills me is that I can't figure out how to get both path
completion and --option completion at the same time.
For a while I had 'echo *' in there to handle that but
that breaks down once you start completing down a subdirectory
(the "/" breaks it). Hence, we always use the '--' separator
when specifying pathspecs.
What I learned from this exercise?
Bash completion is effin amazing! (typed from a bash terminal)
I'm sure there's plenty of ways to improve this. Aside from
throwing it in contrib/ and hoping others find it useful enough
to improve it, I've probably hit my tcsh completion-foo limit.

# Source this script in tcsh to setup shell completions
# for git. Completions are activated by typing <tab> or Control-D
# in the shell after entering a partial command.
#
# Usage:
# source git-completion.tcsh (e.g. in ~/.cshrc)
#
# Supported completions:
# git <tab> (lists git commands)
# git help <tab> (lists git commands)
# git branch <tab> (lists branch names)
# git checkout <tab> (lists branch names)
# git log <tab> (lists the most commonly used flags)
# git remote <tab> (lists git remote commands)
# git remote add|prune|rm|show|update <tab>
# (lists git remote names)
# In addition to entering <tab> where shown, you can enter it after
# typing part of the word, e.g. git branch bug<tab> to auto-complete
# branches starting with "bug".
