backport bash_completion trunk updates into branches/1.5.x ?

[Fabien COELHO <fa...@coelho.net>]

I would like to suggest to port tools/client-side/bash_completion updates 
into the 1.5.x branch, possibly commits r30643, r30653, r30785, r32900, 
r32911, r32912. Indeed, the bash_completion updates lags behind svn, and 
the current version in the 1.5.x branch does not support the new 1.5 
commands and options correctly.

Fabien,

The main updates were in r30643, r30653, r30785 which were merged into
the 1.5.x branch in r30977 (2nd May) which means, I believe, that they
were released in 1.5.0 and all subsequent releases.

I have just nominated and approved r32900, r32911, r32912 for inclusion
in the next release:
[[[
 Approved changes:
 =================
+
+ * r32900, r32911, r32912
+   Update tools/client-side/bash_completion to support v1.5 features.
+   r32900 and r32911 add completion for the arguments of the --show-revs
+     and --set-depth options, respectively.
+   r32912 adds heuristic suggestions for merging.
+   Justification:
+     Useful updates. Little harm if anything is wrong with it.
+   Notes:
+     Requires only one +1 and one +0.

I did notice, in testing, that while the completion for merging suggests
the URL of the trunk or branch if you have not already started typing
the URL:

[[[
cd branch_dir/
svn merge <TAB>
svn merge http://my.repos.site/repos/trunk/ 
]]]

it does not complete it if you have already started typing it:

[[[
cd branch_dir/
svn merge http://my.repos<TAB>
svn merge http://my.repos
]]]

I don't know if this is intentional, but it doesn't seem ideal.

It didn't stop me approving the change for back-port.

Regards,
- Julian
