Subject: [PATCH] Fix bash completion to not garble the screen with an error message.
Message-ID: <20070306201726.15059.68223.stgit@gandelf.nowhere.earth>
URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/20070306201726.15059.68223.stgit%40gandelf.nowhere.earth

```

Maybe we could refuse to complete further when the command was not
recognized, but at least this fix avoids the annoying behaviour.
