$__git_cmd_idx can be empty in some situations, which leads to errors when using "git add <tab>", "git mv <tab>", "git tag <tab>" and "git branch <tab>".

"git mv <tab>" prints this error:
	__git_count_arguments:5:
	bad math expression: operand expected at `""'
	_git_mv:[:9: unknown condition: -gt
"git branch <tab>" prints this error:
	_git_branch:[:4: unknown condition: -lt
"git tag <tab>" prints this error:
	_git_tag:[:3: unknown condition: -lt
"git add <tab>" prints this error:
	__git_find_on_cmdline:[:13: unknown condition: -lt

Fix _git_branch, __git_find_on_cmdline and _git_tag by initializing the local "c" variable to 1 when empty.

Fix __git_count_arguments by initializing "__git_cmd_idx" to 1.

Adjust the for loop in __git_count_arguments to avoid quoting the numeric argument to avoid the following error:

	__git_count_arguments:8:
	bad math expression: operand expected at `"1"'
This was tested on zsh 5.7.1 (x86_64-apple-darwin19.0).
