[PATCH v6 13/13] completion: allow to customize the completable command list

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

 



By default we show porcelain, external commands and a couple others
that are also popular. If you are not happy with this list, you can
now customize it. See the big comment block for details.

PS. perhaps I should make aliases a group too, which makes it possible
to _not_ complete aliases by omitting this special group in
$GIT_COMPLETION_CMD_GROUPS

+#         GIT_COMPLETION_CMD_GROUPS=main,others
+#
+#     Or you could go with defaults add some extra commands specified

+#         completion.commands could be used to exclude commands as

+#         will be excluded from the list of commands gathered by the
+#         groups specified before "config" in
+#         $GIT_COMPLETION_CMD_GROUPS.
