Actually, it's not too expensive. Asking git for the top of the working
tree means it has to traverse up to there anyway. So the trick is just
doing our search without invoking too many external tools which would
cause unnecessary forks.
The patch is below, but I'm still not sure it's a good idea.
Grep only looks in the current subdirectory for matches. So if I am in
"src/foo/bar/", and the tags file is in "src/", then is it really a good
way to generate completions? Most of what's in the tags file will
probably be in _other_ subdirectories of "src/", and won't be matched by
grep at all. So we will give useless entries to bash to complete.

You don't want __gitdir here, but rather "git rev-parse --show-cdup".

Yeah. The intent of the "$cword is 2" thing is to know that we are the
first non-option argument. Arguably, _get_comp_words_by_ref should
somehow tell us which position we are completing relative to the actual
command name.
