So, 'gf' is an alias for 'git fetch', for which the user would like to
use the completion for 'git fetch', right?  But that completion
function is caled _git_fetch(), so the underscore prefix is missing
here.

Besides, this example won't work, because the completion for 'git
fetch' uses __git_complete_remote_or_refspec(), which in turn relies
on finding out the name of the git command from the word on the
command line, and it won't be able to do that from 'gf'.

I remember we discussed this in an earlier round, and you even
suggested a possible fix (passing the command name as argument to
__git_complete_remote_or_refspec()).  I think that's the right thing
to do here.

What is this "$@" for and why?  None of the _git_<cmd>() functions
take any arguments, nor does _git() and _gitk(), and AFAICT Bash won't
pass any either.

Still don't like the subshell and sed here ...

... because it adds delay when the completion script is loaded.  But I
still don't have ideas how to avoid them.
