I've always found it strange that completions for git never seem to include ls-files, at least the name of the command itself. It seems to me that of the low-level commands, that one actually shows up fairly frequently.

I'm assuming that "full" completion for ls-files (i.e. for the subsequent arguments) would be somewhat tricky, but could completion for the string ls-files itself be added trivially? I often second-guess myself when the command itself can't be auto-completed, so it would be nice to at least have that available.

@BatmanAoD It's just the generated one at the moment, but the subcommandls-files and flags should be completed. Haven't used it before myself but that one looks pretty simple to create completions for.

Just upgraded my installation; this seems to work! Thanks!
