8 # When sourced, this script will generate a new script that uses
9 # the git-completion.bash script provided by core Git. This new
10 # script can be used by tcsh to perform git completion.
11 # The current script also issues the necessary tcsh 'complete'
14 # To use this completion script:
16 # 1) Copy both this file and the bash completion script to ${HOME}.
17 # You _must_ use the name ${HOME}/.git-completion.bash for the
19 # (e.g. ~/.git-completion.tcsh and ~/.git-completion.bash).
20 # 2) Add the following line to your .tcshrc/.cshrc:
21 # source ~/.git-completion.tcsh
22 # 3) For completion similar to bash, it is recommended to also
23 # add the following line to your .tcshrc/.cshrc:
24 # set autolist=ambiguous
25 # It will tell tcsh to list the possible completion choices.
27 set __git_tcsh_completion_original_script
= ${HOME}/.git-completion.bash
28 set __git_tcsh_completion_script
= ${HOME}/.git-completion.tcsh.bash
30 # Check that the user put the script in the right place
31 if ( ! -e
${__git_tcsh_completion_original_script} ) then

"git-completion.tcsh: Cannot find: ${__git_tcsh_completion_original_script}. Git completion will not work."
