[PATCH 6/6] completion: clarify ls-tree, archive, show completion

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Currently, the 'git ls-tree', 'git archive', and 'git show' completions
use __git_complete_file (aliased to __git_complete_revlist_file).

In the case of 'git ls-tree' and 'git archive', they necessarily require
a tree-ish argument (and optionally a pathspec filter, or "file
argument"):

  $ git ls-tree hot-branch git.c
  $ git archive HEAD~4 git.c

So, __git_complete_file is a misleading name.

In the case of 'git show', it can take a pathspec and default the
revision to HEAD like:

  $ git show git.c

(which is useful if git.c was modified in HEAD)

However, this usage is not idiomatic at all.  The more common usage is
like:

  $ git show HEAD~1
  $ git show origin/pu:git.c

So, __git_complete_file is again a poor name.

Replace these three instances of __git_complete_file with
__git_complete_revlist_file, without making any functional changes.

Remove __git_complete_file, as it has no other callers.
