Currently only the long version (--source=) supports completion.

Add completion support to the short (-s) option too.

I am not too familiar with the completion library, but what makes
the "-s" option of restore so special?  I've scanned the entire file
and did not find that many special cases for short options that have
their longer counterpart supported already.

I do not know if the "feature" this wants to bring in is a good
idea---we may want to try to be more systematic (e.g. perhaps it
involves teaching the parse-options subsystem about equivalence of
short and long options, so that we can reuse existing support for
the the long option "--source=<TAB>" to complete "-s <TAB>"), if we
were to do something like this.  Singling out "-s" of "restore"
smells not quite right, as the approach would not scale well.

Why duplicated prevword here?  Did you mean 

	local prevword=${words[cword-1]}

instead?

Wrong indentation.  In this file, as can be seen on the line "*)"
you added at the top of this hunk, the case arms like "-s)" and "*)"
must align with "case" and "esac" in this file.

Thanks.

Hi,

Thanks for your detailed review.

There are multiple commands already having this kind of short-long
option completion. The "-c" options of commit, switch and checkout
each have longer counterparts, and both the short and long versions
have completion support for their arguments.

I think these cases are not too frequent, so it doesn't seem to be a
big scaling problem.

Thanks, I'll fix it.

Thanks, I'll fix it.

By the way, I copied this piece of code from _git_switch (it's also
there in _git_checkout), so these problems have to be fixed there as
well.

Also, reading _git_commit it looks that we already have a "$prev"
variable, so I'll use that instead of "$prevword".
