Heya,

Observe:
$ git push ori<tab>
  git push origin

$ git push -f ori<tab>
  git push -f origin/

Something weird going on there, or is this intentional and am I missing something?

Cheers,

Something similar happens with fetch and pull. They only complete the remote name, when exactly 2 words are existing on the command line ("git" and the subcommand) by: if [ "$COMP_CWORD" = 2 ]

Doesn't seem right.

I'm working on a fix. I hope to have it out tonight for review.
