branch does not take advantage of git-completion

https://github.com/git/git/blob/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash

I want to go to there

If you have homebrew on a mac, run:

source /usr/local/etc/bash_completion.d/git-completion.bash

And now typing git checkout mybr[tab] turns into git checkout mybranch

git-friendly branch should take advantage

3 years later this is my favorite wishlist item for git-friendly.

I still use git checkout specifically for the completion, and just use branch for making new branches

Looks like it’s quite easy with zsh:

fpath=($(brew --prefix)/share/zsh/functions $fpath)
autoload -Uz _git && _git
compdef __git_branch_names branch

Oh that's awesome. I found something similar for bash. Do you think it's worth adding?

[sapegin]

I’ll add it ;-)
