I think your add_cmd_list() to smash two lists into one is a good
abstraction to use here, but the existing code that can be seen at the
tail end of the context already does that between main and other command
list in a slightly different way.

Aliases should not hide the commands available elsewhere, and the actual
execution codepath around ll.480-490 in git.c avoids getting fooled by
misconfigured aliases, but you do not protect yourself from that kind of
misconfiguration in this patch.  You can have both "git-foo" command on
your private $PATH and alias.foo in your configuration, and they will have
the same levenshtein score.  I suspect this will cause the same "foo"
suggested twice when the user types "git fo" from the command line.

Here is a suggested fix-up on top of your patch to address these issues.
