The code listing unique remote branches for 'git checkout's tracking
DWIMery uses a shell parameter expansion in a loop iterating over each
listed ref to remove the remote's name from the remote branches, i.e.
the leading path component from the short ref. When listing refs from
a configured remote repository, '| sed s///' is used for the same
purpose.
Let 'git for-each-ref' strip one more leading path component from the
refs, i.e. use the format 'refname:strip=3' instead of '=2', making
that parameter expansion and 'sed' execution unnecessary.
This speeds up refs completion for 'git checkout'. Uniquely
completing a branch for 'git checkout maste<TAB>' in a repo with 100k
remote branches, all packed, best of five:
