Presumably 'git checkout-branches' is from git-stuff.

Here's a patch to make the tested command a little less likely to
conflict with commands from the user's $PATH.  I'm not thrilled with
it because the contents of $PATH are still not tightly controlled, and
this does nothing to avoid problems due to existence of, for example,
a "git cherry-pick-branches" command.

Thoughts?  Maybe it would be enough to check that the intended get
commands are present in the completion list and other git commands are
not, ignoring binaries that might live elsewhere on the $PATH?
