Re: [PATCH] bash: support user-supplied completion scripts for user's git commands

...  BTW, Mercurial's
completion script uses _hg_cmd_foo() for hg commands and
_hg_ext_bar() for extensions, so we might as well be a bit consistent,
and call our completion functions _git_cmd_foo().

In Hg's context it might make sense to name a function _hg_cmd_foo vs
_hg_ext_bar iff the end users need to be very aware of the distinction
between commands and extensions, but for us I think "git_cmd_foo" is
probably the most meaningless rename, as it doesn't add any extra
information (we know 'git foo' is a command already without 'cmd').

I agree.  _git_cmd_foo is pointless.

But I would be ok with _git_completion_foo for the completion
function of git foo.  As Junio pointed out, better to do it now
before users start to really build their own extension library on
top of the package.
