If you are using git on a dreamhack, you can set up the bash shell to autocomplete git commands and branch names. This is Very Useful.
First, download the script:
wget https://raw.github.com/git/git/master/contrib/completion/git-completion.bash ~/bin/git-completion.sh
Then, set your shell to load this script. Edit the file .bashrc in your home directory,
nano ~/.bashrc
and add this command to the end of it:
source ~/bin/git-completion.sh
From the next time you log in, you should be able to press tab and have git commands and git branch names autocomplete on the command line. Shiny!
