The previous completion generation was broken for several reasons:
* ./foo would break detection of suffix due to the leading . being
interpreted an extension marker,
* ./foo would be completed as foo, which would be excluded from
matching inrcomplete.cpp
Using `git for-each-ref` both simplifies the code (no need to deal
with detached heads anymore) and speeds it up.
With 1600 branches, the time goes from ~48ms to ~16ms.
- fix capitalization
- shorten descriptions
- implement subcommand shortcuts
- add arg completion for 'limit' and 'depth' switches
- improve arg completion for list subcommand in case of -p switch
bower was calling `__fish_should_complete_args`, the old name for
`__fish_should_complete_switches.`
yarn was parsing bower.json instead of package.json.
To be used by completions to directly determine whether it is either
possible or preferable to complete a switch (instead of a subcommand),
(presuming that switches must come before subcommands).
* __fish_can_complete_switches: we are in a position where a switch may
be placed.
* __fish_should_complete_switches: we're in a position to accept a
switch and the current token starts with `-` so we have no choice but
to do so.

`all-the-package-names` is still used to generate completions for `npm`
if it is installed, but it is not manually installed nor updated. It is
now the user's responsibility to do both, and it must be installed
globally.
`npm search` was _way_ too slow to be used for dynamic completions, so
using a cached list of all avaialable NPM packages to match against.
This is a bit brave for a fish completion, but the npm package
`all-the-package-names` has a list of, well, all the package names
avaialable for installation via the default npm registry. Installing a
copy locally to $HOME/.cache/fish/npm_completions and using that to
search for packages matching the tokenized command line.
Preference would be to call `__update_atpm` in the background, but that
emits an ugly "job has completed" message..
Should also use this for completions for `yarn add`.
Instead, attempt to extract the message that _would_ be displayed on
execution of `./configure --help` by relying on some markers present in
autoconf-generated configure files.
As measured with 'hyperfine' on a laptop running in reduced frequency
power savings mode, `fish -c "__fish_parse_configure ./configure"`
runtime dropped from ~1.25s to ~0.8ms, which is inline with the
previously observed ~350ms execution time for `./configure --help`.
fish's own startup time is approximately 75ms before parsing begins.
Still very slow, but much better.
This relies on the new `read --line/-L` support as an entire parser for
the output of `./configure --help` was written in fishscript. Also
doesn't work without 72f32e6d8a7905b064680ec4b578c41dea62bf84.
The completion script is slow... a function of both the autotools
configure script itself being written in a shell script combined with a
fishscript output parser.
fish's own `./configure --help` takes around 350ms to execute, while
`__fish_parse_configure ./configure` (which runs that behind the scenes)
takes around 660ms to run, all-in-all - a not insignificant overhead.
Output can be cached (based off of ./configure hash or mtime) in the
future if this is a big deal.
The default completions that autojump ships with for fish are broken
(emitting output like "1\___\#...") as they use hackes to work around
the previous lack of `complete -k`. The history-based autojump
completions fully replace it.
The job expansion wrapper was swallowing `-n` (and presumably `-e` and
others) when that was the literal argument we needed to emit. Using
`printf %s ...` instead.
