I haven't found myself using grep to search anything but the current
working directory.  I wonder whether __git_complete_file would be
better than __git_refs.  My issue with __git_complete_file in this
case and also doing completion for 'git mv' is that it falls back to
just __git_refs.  Would it be better if it fell back to __git_refs and
ls-tree for HEAD?  That way when using completion to get to
Documentation/git-grep.txt,  it doesn't also show completions for
Documentation/git-grep.{1,html,xml}.
