git-completion.bash: add support for path completion
The git-completion.bash script did not implemented full, git aware, support to complete paths, for git commands that operate on files within the current working directory or the index. As an example: git add <TAB> will suggest all files in the current working directory, including ignored files and files that have not been modified. Support path completion, for git commands where the non-option arguments always refer to paths within the current working directory or the index, as follows: * the path completion for the "git rm" and "git ls-files" commands will suggest all cached files. * the path completion for the "git add" command will suggest all untracked and modified files. Ignored files are excluded. * the path completion for the "git clean" command will suggest all untracked files. Ignored files are excluded. * the path completion for the "git mv" command will suggest all cached files when expanding the first argument, and all untracked and cached files for subsequent arguments. In the latter case, empty directories are included and ignored files are excluded. * the path completion for the "git commit" command will suggest all files that have been modified from the HEAD, if HEAD exists, otherwise it will suggest all cached files. For all affected commands, completion will always stop at directory boundary. Only standard ignored files are excluded, using the --exclude-standard option of the ls-files command. When using a recent Bash version, Git path completion will be the same as builtin file completion, e.g. git add contrib/ will suggest relative file names.
