To keep git completion standalone we need to, like Gábor mentioned, add the necessary functions, but we don't have to rename them. There is an option to check if a function exists. I've changed the entire git completion script and hopefully covered all options. From my tests it works on bash 4. To give an idea of what the change is, here's part of the entire diff. diff --git a/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash b/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash index f83f019..a2c0589 100755 --- a/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash +++ b/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash @@ -71,12 +71,159 @@ # # git@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx # +# Updated for Bash 4.0 case "$COMP_WORDBREAKS" in *:*) : great ;; *) COMP_WORDBREAKS="$COMP_WORDBREAKS:" esac +# If the function _get_cword does not exists, we can assume the +# bash_completion script isn't loaded and therefor we're defining the +# necessary functions ourselves. +if ! type _get_cword &> /dev/null ; then + # features supported by bash 4.0 and higher + if [ ${BASH_VERSINFO[0]} -gt 3 ]; then + declare -r git_bash4=$BASH_VERSION 2>/dev/null || : + fi + + # Get the word to complete. + # This is nicer than ${COMP_WORDS[$COMP_CWORD]}, since it handles cases + # where the user is completing in the middle of a word. + # (For example, if the line is "ls foobar", + # and the cursor is here --------> ^ + # it will complete just "foo", not "foobar", which is what the user wants.) + # @param $1 string (optional) Characters out of $COMP_WORDBREAKS which should + # NOT be considered word breaks.
