I'm not sure of the solution, but I think we should do this in the meantime: -- >8 -- Subject: Revert "completion: fix shell expansion of items" This reverts commit 25ae7cfd19c8f21721363c64163cd5d9d1135b20. That patch does fix expansion of weird variables in some simple tests, but it also seems to break other things, like expansion of refs by "git checkout". While we're sorting out the correct solution, we are much better with the original bug (people with metacharacters in their completions occasionally see an error message) than the current bug (ref completion does not work at all).
