There's no point in setting COMPREPLY only to override it later, and in fact; we don't do that.

Therefore there's no functional difference between __gitcomp_direct() and __gitcomp_direct_append(), since __gitcomp_direct() *always* operates on empty COMPREPLY.

The same goes for __gitcomp_nl().

This patch makes the functionality of append and non-append functions the same.

There should be no functional changes.
