Hi all, I just asked for help on the #git irc channel in order to install the .git-completion.sh script (thanks nessundorma) and after using it for a while I started wondering why I cannot find any reference to it the official documentation. The only important think that git grep found is: paolo@paolo-desktop:~/git$ git grep completion * Documentation/RelNotes-1.5.0.txt: - Bash completion scripts have been updated heavily. Shouldn't it be mentioned somewhere? I know that newbies are somehow scared by the following: paolo@paolo-desktop:~/git$ git- Display all 151 possibilities? (y or n) What? Do I have to learn 151 commands? No way! Using the git-completation script it all boils down to 48 commands. paolo@paolo-desktop:~/git$ git add fetch rebase am filter-branch rebase--interactive annotate format-patch relink apply fsck remote archive gc repack bisect get-tar-commit-id request-pull blame grep reset branch gui resolve bundle imap-send revert checkout init rm checkout-index instaweb send-email cherry log shortlog cherry-pick lost-found show citool ls-files show-branch clean ls-remote show-ref clone ls-tree stash commit merge status config mergetool submodule convert-objects mv tag count-objects name-rev var describe pickaxe verify-pack diff pull whatchanged diff-stages push And I think I can remove some commands from the list. What people think about starting suggesting the usage of the script in the documentation? I just want to know the opinion of the list before trying to write a documentation patch. Next step would be to reduce the number of the items listed by git <tab> but I know there is already a discussion about it on the list.
