Hrm, in my case git tab completion works fine with aliases on Debian
Squeeze, too. E.g. with dc="diff --cached", git dc --<Tab> works as
expected as well as "git dc -- <Tab>" does.

Not sure how much of it comes from grml's zshrc (ft may be able to
tell :-), but it's definitely doable with zsh 4.3.10 from Squeeze. :-)

		Kind regards, Axel
