Hum... I'm not sure, if this is a bug in the git-completion source or if it
should be considered a bug in bash's completion code. Ben, could you please
comment on that?

Yes, I know of these scripts and I am going to merge the scripts provided by
git-completion into git-core and ask Gerrit (the maintainer of the Debian
git-core package) for inclusion in the git-core package. However, I'm quite
busy currently and I do not know when I'm going to find some spare time to do
this.

I do not really see a reason for this. Why do you think it's necessary?

Cheers,
Sebastian
