I understand your point was primarily "git-a<tab>".  I think it has been
solved for bash and zsh but not for other shells.  I think possible and
sensible avenues are (1) punt -- cvs, svn nor hg people do not seem to
have problem with it, or (2) implement completion in your other favorite
shells.
My point is that (2) is already implemented for every program (shell or
no) which understands filename completion, and there is a proposal for
taking it away. I would consider that, except I haven't see any claimed
advantages except that the hardlinks are awful under Windows.
Weren't enough complaints about Git having waaaaaaaaaaay too many 
commands?  Didn't those complaints come about often enough already?

	$ git-[tab]
	Display all 135 possibilities? (y or n)
