Re: [PATCH] git-completion.zsh: define __gitcomp_file compatibility function

> Commit fea16b47b60 (Fri Jan 11 19:48:43 2013, Manlio Perillo,
> git-completion.bash: add support for path completion), introduced a new
> __gitcomp_file function that uses the bash builtin "compgen". The
> function was redefined for ZSH in the deprecated section of
> git-completion.bash, but not in the new git-completion.zsh script.
>
> As a result, users of git-completion.zsh trying to complete "git add
> fo<tab>" get an error:
>
> git add fo__gitcomp_file:8: command not found: compgen
>
> This patch adds the redefinition and removes the error.
