Git completion not working?

[Mahoney]

Hi,

I'm using brew to intall bash, git & bash-completion@2, but git completion has stopped working.

I have the latest versions installed:

$ echo "${BASH_VERSION}"
5.1.4(1)-release
$ git --version
git version 2.30.0

I have the following in my ~/.bashrc:

export BASH_COMPLETION_COMPAT_DIR="$(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d"
[[ -r "$(brew --prefix)/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh" ]] && . "$(brew --prefix)/etc/profile.d/bash_completion.sh"

And the relevant file is linked in bash_completion.d:

$ ls -l "$(brew --prefix)/etc/bash_completion.d"
lrwxr-xr-x  1 Robert  admin  65  6 Jan 15:13 git-completion.bash -> ../../Cellar/git/2.30.0/etc/bash_completion.d/git-completion.bash

What's more if I add set -x to the top of $(brew --prefix)/Cellar/git/2.30.0/etc/bash_completion.d/git-completion.bash I see loads of output when I open a terminal window, so it's definitely being sourced.

But no completion. Any ideas, anyone? Is anyone else having this issue?

Inevitably I instantly find the related issues - it's because I have hub installed as well and there's a bug in hub that disables completion for both as of git 2.30.0.
