[PATCH v2 0/5] completion for git-reflog show

["Rubén Justo" <rjusto@gmail.com>]

This iteration has three main changes and two new commits since v2.

The changes:

 - The function __gitcomp_subcommand is no longer needed in this series.
   The patch that introduced it has been removed.
 
 - The description for the behaviour we're fixing in the patch 1/5 has
   been reworded to better explain the behaviour we're expecting.
 
 - Provide completion for both subcommands and references when the
   expectation is such that we're not sure if the implicit subcommand
   "show" is desired.

About the two new commits:

This series is described in the last "What's cooking" with:

 The command line completion script (in contrib/) learned to
 complete "git reflog" better.

So, while we're here I've included two new commits, 4/5 and 5/5, that
fit well in that description.

An important note is in the last patch, reporting the special case
needed for the <log-options> in the "show" subcommand.  This is what has
made me decide to include the new commits in this series.

Rubén Justo (5):
  completion: reflog with implicit "show"
  completion: introduce __git_find_subcommand
  completion: reflog show <log-options>
  completion: factor out __git_builtin
  completion: reflog subcommands and options

    -    We are not completing correctly this implicit uses of "show":
    -
    -    With ...
    +    This implicit "show" is not being completed correctly:
     
             $ git checkout -b default
    +        $ git reflog def<TAB><TAB>
    +        ... no completion options ...
     
    -    ... we are not completing "default":
    +    The expected result is:
     
    -        $ git reflog def<TAB><TAB>
    +        $ git reflog default
    +
    +    This happens because we're completing references after seeing a valid
    +    subcommand in the command line.  This prevents the implicit "show" from
    +    working properly, but also introduces a new problem: it keeps offering
    +    subcommand options when the subcommand is implicit:
    +
    +        $ git checkout -b explore
    +        $ git reflog default ex<TAB>
    +        ...
    +        $ git reflog default expire
     
    -    And we are incorrectly returning the "subcommands" when:
    +    The expected result is:
     
    -        $ git reflog default <TAB><TAB>
    -        delete expire show
    +        $ git reflog default explore
     
    -    Let's use __gitcomp_subcommand to correctly handle implicit
    -    subcommands.
    +    To fix this, complete references even if no subcommand is present, or in
    +    other words when the subcommand is implicit "show".
    +
    +    Also, only include completion options for subcommands when completing
    +    the right position in the command line.
