Well, I assumed that the patch was stalled due to missing review from git completion experts...

For this reason I have not updated it with your latest suggestions, waiting for the review (also, because now I'm busy with other projects).

For the OP: the last patch can be found in the mailing list archive,
with the subject:
	[PATCH v5] git-completion.bash: add support for path completion
and date:
	Fri, 11 Jan 2013 19:48:43 +0100
Can you please test it?
Regards   Manlio
