Public bug reported:
git diff can be run on two regular files, which are not under git source
control. However, pressing Tab to auto-complete filenames gives an error
"fatal: Not a git repository".
I believe, bash-completion is the culprit. It should not be overly smart and
simply try to complete the filenames.
touch oldfile newfile
git diff oldfile newfile
# versus
git diff old<Tab>
** Affects: bash-completion (Ubuntu)
