From: Cornelius Weig <cornelius.weig@tngtech.com>

Command completion only recognizes a subset of the available options for the various git commands. The set of recognized options needs to balance between having all useful options and to not clutter the terminal.

This commit adds all long-options that are mentioned in the man-page synopsis of the respective git command. Possibly dangerous options are not included in this set, to avoid accidental data loss. The added options are:

 - apply: --recount --directory=
 - archive: --output
 - branch: --column --no-column --sort= --points-at
 - clone: --no-single-branch --shallow-submodules
 - commit: --patch --short --date --allow-empty
 - describe: --first-parent
 - fetch, pull: --unshallow --update-shallow
 - fsck: --name-objects
 - grep: --break --heading --show-function --function-context
         --untracked --no-index
 - mergetool: --prompt --no-prompt
 - reset: --keep
 - revert: --strategy= --strategy-option=
 - shortlog: --email
 - tag: --merged --no-merged --create-reflog
