git bash completion

Try this in bash

git p

You get a file names p or a list of them.  Thats not much good, but there is a great bash completion library which you can source in your .bashrc to give you valid completion targets

$git p
pull
push
$git p


Pull this file and source it in your .bashrc


$wget https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash
$echo . $PWD/git-completion.bash >> ~/.bashrc


Open up a new terminal window and enjoy.
