[PATCH v4 3/3] completion: ensure cone mode completion with multiple <TAB>s

From
Lessley Dennington via GitGitGadget <gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
Date

Message-ID
<760cae85bd4163d9cbef1585186cda60c8c3b35b.1643318514.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.1108.v4.git.1643318514.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Lessley Dennington <lessleydennington@gmail.com>

Ensure users in a cone mode sparse checkout can tab-complete to directories at multiple levels with multiple <TAB>s. For example, if path a/b/c/ exists in the current directory, running a<TAB>b<TAB> will result in:

        a/b/c/

The 'sparse-checkout completes directory names' test has also been updated with trailing slashes according to these changes.
