However, to avoid breaking user scripts that may depend on this, add it back as a deprecated alias.

This is fine by me, but at some point we need to decide how we should prefix the functions that are supposed to be used by external scripts. Also, maybe we should start adding '# TODO remove in v2.0' so we remember to do that in v2.0. -- Felipe Contreras ``` ## Ramkumar Ramachandra, 2013-06-07 19:29 Subject: Re: [PATCH] completion: add deprecated __git_complete_file () Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CALkWK0mvsQC4fbfnd%2BKbk6q6qRCQGgGxQ89%3DD4O1%2BEKfXgw34A%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` Felipe Contreras wrote: > This is fine by me, but at some point we need to decide how we should > prefix the functions that are supposed to be used by external scripts.

While at it, let's also clean up the deprecated zsh nonsense in git-completion.bash. ``` ## Felipe Contreras, 2013-06-07 19:31 Subject: Re: [PATCH] completion: add deprecated __git_complete_file () Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CAMP44s0nn_cFNmxy%3DGXPMYFNy92RbkZyZok7phEHnkc%2BHHKYfQ%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: ``` On Fri, Jun 7, 2013 at 2:29 PM, Ramkumar Ramachandra wrote: > Felipe Contreras wrote: >> This is fine by me, but at some point we need to decide how we should >> prefix the functions that are supposed to be used by external scripts. > > Yeah, I thought __ meant "internal" :/ > >> Also, maybe we should start adding '# TODO remove in v2.0' so we >> remember to do that in v2.0. > > While at it, let's also clean up the deprecated zsh nonsense in > git-completion.bash.

With this, I think it will be safe to push the series in question to 'master'. ``` ## SZEDER Gábor, 2013-06-08 00:24 Subject: Re: [PATCH] completion: add deprecated __git_complete_file () Message-ID: <20130608002452.GE31625@goldbirke> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20130608002452.GE31625%40goldbirke In-Reply-To: <7vobbhsll3.fsf@alter.siamese.dyndns.org> ``` On Fri, Jun 07, 2013 at 01:38:16PM -0700, Junio C Hamano wrote: > Ramkumar Ramachandra writes: > > > 77c130 (completion: clarify ls-tree, archive, show completion, > > 2013-06-02) removed __git_complete_file () because it had no callers > > left in the file.

However, I still think it would be worth reverting at least the hunks modifying the completion functions of ls-tree and archive. Or better yet, the whole series. ``` ## SZEDER Gábor, 2013-06-08 00:35 Subject: Re: [PATCH] completion: add deprecated __git_complete_file () Message-ID: <20130608003512.GF31625@goldbirke> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20130608003512.GF31625%40goldbirke In-Reply-To: ``` On Fri, Jun 07, 2013 at 02:25:54PM -0500, Felipe Contreras wrote: > On Fri, Jun 7, 2013 at 2:09 PM, Ramkumar Ramachandra wrote: > > 77c130 (completion: clarify ls-tree, archive, show completion, > > 2013-06-02) removed __git_complete_file () because it had no callers > > left in the file.

Or rather how we should prefix the functions that are _not_ supposed to be used by external scripts. That way all public functions would retain the "__git" prefix and existing scripts calling only common functions like __git_(heads|git_refs|find_on_cmdline|etc.) would work without modification.
