Thanks for a pointer. I think what I was suggesting was slightly different in that I was hoping to see a single helper that knows to complete to object names (possibly including trees/blobs with the treeish:path notation), ranges, and pathnames (not treeish:path notation) until it sees a "--" and then complete only to pathnames. It can be improved by teaching the unified one that some command like "log" can never take treeish:path but only committishes, some command take individual object names but never ranges, and/or details like that. But I still agree that "git log HEAD:dir<TAB>" that completes to a blob or a tree object name is not an issue (because what was before <TAB> cannot possibly name anything "git log" would appreciate), even though it might not be ideal. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
