Changes since v1:

 * Corrected my email in PATCH 2/5 (sorry for the noise)

v1: This series removes hardcoded config variable names in the
__git_complete_config_variable_name function, partly by adding a new mode to
'git help'. It also adds completion for 'submodule.*' config variables,
which were previously missing.

I think it makes sense to do that in the same series since it's closely
related, and splitting it would result in textual conflicts between both
series if one does not build on top of the other, but I'm open to other
suggestions.

Thanks,

Philippe.

Neither rounds of this series unfortunately got any review.
Comments from anybody interested in helping to improve completion
scripts?

Thanks.

Well, I've spent some time with Bash completion recently, so let me give
it a go. I was trying to avoid the dense Bash logic and thus shied away
from reviewing it. But the end result of having less hardcoded values is
quite nice indeed.
