$ git log -- <TAB> Display all 100 possibilities? (y or n)

I guess adding one more option is no big deal, so go for it! We also have a couple --no-options already (as you said earlier), which I think makes it even more viable.

Tangent: I wonder if we can cascade the completion by common prefixes, e.g. --no- or --ignore- occurs a couple of times, such that we could only show these --no- once and only if you try autocompleting thereafter you get all --no- options.

Thanks for reviving this thread! Stefan
