Correct multiple issues with tab completion of the git sparse-checkout command. These issues were: 1. git sparse-checkout <TAB> previously resulted in an incomplete list of subcommands (it was missing reapply and add). 2. Subcommand options were not tab-completable. 3. git sparse-checkout set <TAB> and git sparse-checkout add <TAB> showed both file names and directory names. While this may be a less surprising behavior for non-cone mode, cone mode sparse checkouts should complete only directory names. Note that while the new strategy of just using git ls-tree to complete on directory names is simple and a step in the right direction, it does have some caveats. These are: 1. Likelihood of poor performance in large monorepos (as a result of recursively completing directory names). 2. Inability to handle paths containing unusual characters. These caveats will be fixed by subsequent commits in this series.

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
