Re: [PATCH 2/3] Makes the bash completion script try *bash* completions before simple, filetype completions when a git completion is not found. If bash, completions aren't available, the default file completions are used. This, behavior was inspired by Mercurial's bash completion script.

Again, I would have used this as my commit message:

	bash-completion: Try bash completions before file completions

	Try bash completions before any simple file completions
	whenever a git completion is not found.  This may help
	users to complete BLAH BLAH BLAH WHAT THE HECK IS THIS GOOD
	FOR ANYWAY.

	Behavior was inspired by Mercurial's bash completion script.

No ack, because I still don't understand why this is a good thing.
Yes, I could look it up online in the bash docs.  I shouldn't need
to go do research like that to understand the justification for
a change, it should be better explained in the message.
