NOTE: On my system, I save git-completion.bash to .git_bash_completion. 
Because of that, Vim can't ftdetect off of the file name. The modeline 
allows ft=sh even when you don't end in .sh or .bash.

An alternative (to a Vim modeline) is to put

#!bash

at the top of the script. That would do the same thing as the modeline (even though it would never actually get used by the sourced "script").
