The slowness of the completion script (especially the time it takes before it decides to complete pathnames) has been bothering me for some time, so I share Ingo's frustration, but it hasn't got to the point to disable it. After typing: $ git checkout master -- Docu and then hitting the "Tab" key to complete before I see "mentation/", it takes about 2-3 seconds for the first time, and after that it becomes torelable. Is it the command table bootstrapping that is taking this long? <offtopic> I'll be mostly offline for the rest of the day, so you do not have to respond in a hurry. </offtopic> -- 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
