On my slow laptop (P3 600MHz), system-wide bash completions take
too much time to load (> 2s), and a significant fraction of this
time is spent loading git-completion.bash:
$ time bash -c ". ./git-completion.bash" # hot cache, before this patch
real 0m0.509s
user 0m0.310s
sys 0m0.180s
Kirill noticed that most of the time is spent warming up the
merge_strategy, all_command and porcelain_command caches.
Since git is not used in each and every interactive xterm, it
seems best to load completion support with cold caches and then
load each needed thing lazily. This has most of the speed
advantage of pre-generating everything at build time, without the
complication of figuring out at build time what commands will be
available at run time.
The result is that loading completion is significantly faster
now:
$ time bash -c ". ./git-completion.bash" # cold cache, after this patch
real 0m0.171s
user 0m0.060s
sys 0m0.040s

This version incorporates the small improvements previously sent, plus the
following nice one (which makes caching merge strategies safe again).
Thanks for the advice, everyone.
