$path unquoted???

Good thinking to document this.  Thanks.

I take it that $1 never comes from the end user and it is known that
it is correct to split them at $IFS?  That is the way I read callers
of this function in this patch, but I am just double-checking.

As this runs "git diff-index" without --cached, 

The completion will give only for paths that have difference between
the working tree and the HEAD.  If the user has a bogus contents
that was "git add"ed earlier, (i.e. the index is different from
HEAD), then realizes the mistake and fixes it in the working tree
with his editor to match "HEAD" (i.e. the working tree is the same
as HEAD):

	git commit the-prefix-to-that-file<TAB>

to complete the filename will not give that file.  I do not think it
is a show-stopper, but it may puzzle the users when they encounter
the situation.

I am wondering if reading from "git status --porcelain" might be a
better alternative, or if it is too much trouble and slow things
down to cover such a corner case.

Is $cword affected by the presense of "-f" in "git mv [-f] foo bar"?
Just being curious.

Other than that, I do not see anything majorly wrong from the coding
and semantics point of view in the patch.  As to the interaction
with the rest of the completion machinery, I'll leave the review to
the area experts CC'ed and wait for their comments.

Thanks.
