[PATCH 0/2] add case insensitivity option to bash completion

In 3bb16a8bf2 (tag, branch, for-each-ref: add --ignore-case for sorting and filtering, 2016-12-04), support was added for filtering and sorting refs in a case insensitive way. This is a behavior that seems appropriate to enable with shell completion. Many shells provide case insensitive completion as an option, even on filesystems that remain case sensitive.

This patch adds a new variable that, when set, will allow Bash completion to use the --ignore-case option to match refs. Additionally, some basic support is implemented to match pseudorefs like HEAD.

Alison Winters (2):
  completion: add optional ignore-case when matching refs
  completion: add case-insensitive match of pseudorefs
