# [PATCH] Add "--set-upstream" option to bash completion 2 messages from 2011-04-29 to 2011-04-29. Participants: Dmitry Medvinsky, Junio C Hamano.

That option should be tab-completed for git push command.

If that is the case, it should not be shown. Can you make this conditional without too much overhead? Is it worth doing? I suspect that offering this completion unconditionally hurts more than it helps users, as it would be much less common for users to be using this option than this option being no-op (or it could error out---I didn't check). After all, you give this option just once and then after that keep running "git push" without it. > > Signed-off-by: Dmitry Medvinsky > --- > contrib/completion/git-completion.bash | 2 +- > 1 files changed, 1 insertions(+), 1 deletions(-) > > diff --git a/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash b/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash > index 9150ea6..cc90e43 100755 > --- a/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash > +++ b/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash > @@ -1796,7 +1796,7 @@ _git_push () > --*) > __gitcomp " > --all --mirror --tags --dry-run --force --verbose > - --receive-pack= --repo= > + --receive-pack= --repo= --set-upstream > " > return > ;; ```
