Hello,

I found a bug in the git bash completion. It occurs when I press tab to complete branch name when I want to pull from the origin. Instead of completing the branch name it prompts me directly for my password on the origin remote.

                                                          I pressed tab 
here (just after mem)
                                                             |
srabot@khety:~/dev/ribeti.git[memcached]$ git pull origin 
memsrabot@git.ps.agematis.loc's password:
srabot@git.ps.agematis.loc's password:
cached
srabot@git.ps.agematis.loc's password:
 From git.ps.agematis.loc:/var/git/ribeti
 * branch            memcached  -> FETCH_HEAD
Already up-to-date.
I'm using :

Linux khety 2.6.31-16-generic #53-Ubuntu SMP Tue Dec 8 04:01:29 UTC 2009 i686 GNU/Linux GNU bash, version 4.0.33(1)-release (i486-pc-linux-gnu) git version 1.6.6

Best regards.
