[PATCH 0/1] worktree: add completion for the rev argument in git worktree add <path> <rev>

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

This is inspired by one of those half-finished contributions in the Git for
Windows project. Fall cleaning, if you like.

[PATCH 1/1] completion: complete <rev> in `git worktree add <path> <rev>`

[Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget]

From: Johannes Schindelin <johannes.schindelin@gmx.de>

The second non-option argument to `git worktree`'s `add` command is an
optional revision. Let's complete it.

Inspired by https://github.com/git-for-windows/git/pull/1681.

Unfortunately, this seems to work only in the following case:

  git worktree add path <TAB>

i.e. when the two-be-completed word is still empty.  However,

  git worktree add path m<TAB>

doesn't work anymore, as it lists paths instead of refs.  Furthermore,

  git worktree add --detach path <TAB>
  git worktree add --detach path m<TAB>
  git worktree add -b newbranch path <TAB>

list paths as well.

However, I presume unintentionally,

  git worktree add -b <TAB>

does the right thing and lists refs, but with

  git worktree add -b m<TAB>

we are back at paths instead of refs.  OTOH,

  git worktree add --detach <TAB>
  git worktree add --lock <TAB>

will erroneously list refs.

I wrote a completion function for 'git worktree' a long while ago,
back when it had only two subcommands, which did mostly the right
thing, but I found it too convoluted for serious submission.  Here it
is for inspiration:
