After 'git fetch <remote> <TAB>' our completion script offers refspecs that will fetch to a local branch with the same name as in the remote repository, e.g. 'master:master'. This also completes non-fast-forward refspecs, i.e. after a '+' prefix like '+master:master', and fully qualified refspecs, e.g. 'refs/heads/master:refs/heads/master'. However, it does not complete non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs (or fully qualified refspecs following any other prefix, e.g. '--option=', though currently no git command supports such an option, but third party git commands might). These refspecs are listed by the __git_refs2() function, which is just a thin wrapper iterating over __git_refs()'s output, turning each listed ref into a refspec. Now, it's certainly possible to modify __git_refs2() and its callsite to pass an extra parameter containing only the ref part of the current word to be completed (to follow suit of the previous commit) to deal with prefixed fully qualified refspecs as well. Unfortunately, keeping the current behavior unchanged in the "no extra parameter" case brings in a bit of subtlety, which makes the resulting code ugly and compelled me to write a 8-line long comment in the proof of concept. Not good. However, since the callsite has to be modified for proper functioning anyway, we might as well leave __git_refs2() as is and introduce a new helper function without backwards compatibility concerns. Add the new function __git_complete_fetch_refspecs() that has all the necessary parameters to do the right thing in all cases mentioned above, including non-fast-forward fully qualified refspecs. This new function can also easier benefit from optimizations coming later in this patch series. Signed-off-by: SZEDER Gábor <szeder.dev@gmail.com> Signed-off-by: Junio C Hamano <gitster@pobox.com> |

Contributed Software Although these pieces are available as part of the official git source tree, they are in somewhat different status. The intention is to keep interesting tools around git here, maybe even experimental ones, to give users an easier access to them, and to give tools wider exposure, so that they can be improved faster. I am not expecting to touch these myself that much. As far as my day-to-day operation is concerned, these subdirectories are owned by their respective primary authors. I am willing to help if users of these components and the contrib/ subtree "owners" have technical/design issues to resolve, but the initiative to fix and/or enhance things _must_ be on the side of the subtree owners. IOW, I won't be actively looking for bugs and rooms for enhancements in them as the git maintainer -- I may only do so just as one of the users when I want to scratch my own itch. If you have patches to things in contrib/ area, the patch should be first sent to the primary author, and then the primary author should ack and forward it to me (git pull request is nicer). This is the same way as how I have been treating gitk, and to a lesser degree various foreign SCM interfaces, so you know the drill. I expect that things that start their life in the contrib/ area to graduate out of contrib/ once they mature, either by becoming projects on their own, or moving to the toplevel directory. On the other hand, I expect I'll be proposing removal of disused and inactive ones from time to time. If you have new things to add to this area, please first propose it on the git mailing list, and after a list discussion proves there are some general interests (it does not have to be a list-wide consensus for a tool targeted to a relatively narrow audience -- for example I do not work with projects whose upstream is svn, so I have no use for git-svn myself, but it is of general interest for people who need to interoperate with SVN repositories in a way git-svn works better than git-svnimport), submit a patch to create a subdirectory of contrib/ and put your stuff there. -jc
