What should we do?

When the user have a branch "show":

   $ git checkout -b show
   $ git reflog sho<TAB><TAB>

And with:

   $ git reflog <TAB><TAB>

Should we suggest the subcommands alongside the branches?

I thought about this, and it's a can of worms.  I concluded that a sane
an instructive for the user approach is to first try the subcommands and
if no option is found, then try the implicit "show".

Maybe I'm overthinking it ...

Thanks.
