To avoid side effects, reposition the _arguments call in _sh for the zsh
special case. Document the side effects so avoided, and clean up the
_arguments documentation a bit along the way.
While limiting the completion to __git_changed-in-index_files
makes perfect sense for "git diff", it is wrong to use for
"git rm", because it prevents it from completing files present in
HEAD. Giving --cached to git rm is supposed to
"just remove it from the index, keep the working tree copy"
and is in no way related to the file needing to be
modified in the index in the first place.
diff options:
--cumulative is deprecated --> remove
-G / -S: reword -S to emphase the difference to -G
revision options:
--abbrev: reword, to emphase the --abbrev-commit requirement
this is used in git 1.8's
git checkout <branch>
as a shorthand for
git checkout -b <branch> --track <remote>/<branch>
in case <branch> exists on exactly one remote and is not a local branch
ake care of mutually exclusive options.
Add _description using $state_descr.
Add completions for --debug=flag.
Fix typo (pointed out by Daniel Shahaf).
Currently, __git-shortlog () says that 'git shortlog' can only accept
commits as arguments (probably because the official documentation says
this). This is entirely untrue: shortlog can accept
commit-range-or-file, just like log can. Fix the completer by copying
out segments from the __git-log () function.

The configuration variables branch.*.pushremote and remote.pushdefault
are relatively new, and are currently not completed by ZSH. Fix this.

When a branch or tag name is completed with zsh in a large git repo, the
completion is slow if the given prefix doesn't match a file or directory in
the current working directory. Testing with linux.git, which contains release
tags like v3.9 and a directory virt/:
git log v<tab>
takes about 0.5 seconds, while
git log v3<tab>
takes about 25 seconds.
(Timed using zsh 4.3.17, on a fairly slow cpu. zsh from git appears to be
quite a bit faster, but the difference between completing v and v3 is still
large.)
The difference between the two is that v<tab> passes the result of v* to git
ls-files while v3<tab> determines that v3* matches no files, and passes an
empty prefix to git ls-files. So git ls-files lists all files in the repo
and passes that on to _multi_parts.
Making git do the expansion of the * after the prefix lets git ls-files v3*
return an empty list, making _multi_parts job easier.
This does not affect the behavior of git log <tab>, but improves the
performance of partial tag and branch tab-completion in the common case where
file names and tag/branch names don't overlap.
