[v3,0/4] Sparse checkout completion fixes

Message

Johannes Schindelin via GitGitGadget Dec. 3, 2023, 5:57 a.m. UTC

This fixes a few issues with tab completion for the sparse-checkout command,
specifically with the "add" and "set" subcommands.

Changes since v2:

 * For patch 4, provide completion (and startings) of arguments into
   patterns that match files in the index -- as suggested by Junio.

Changes since v1:

 * Use __git wrapper function to squelch errors, as suggested by SZEDER
   Gábor
 * note that we could use the index or HEAD for the more involved solution
   in patch 4.
