Tcsh shell completions for git based on work by David Adler, David Aguilar
# Source this script in tcsh to setup shell completions
# for git. Completions are activated by typing or Control-D
# in the shell after entering a partial command.
#
# Usage:
# source git-completion.tcsh (e.g. in ~/.cshrc)
#
# Supported completions:
# git (lists git commands)
# git help (lists git commands)
# git branch (lists branch names)
# git checkout (lists branch names)
# git log (lists the most commonly used flags)
# git remote (lists git remote commands)
# git remote add|prune|rm|show|update
# (lists git remote names)
# In addition to entering where shown, you can enter it after
# typing part of the word, e.g. git branch bug to auto-complete
# branches starting with “bug”.
#
# Author: David Adler, David Aguilar
if ( -x /usr/bin/git) then
# Git is installed so define tcsh completions for it.
# List of known git subcommands
# This is a hard-coded list to avoid calling ‘git help’ at startup.
