Sorry for the late reply.

I have only two comments about this patch: one bugfix and one question.

There are other callers of __git_commit_ranges that pass compadd options in
argv.  There is already a compadd option "-C", therefore, choosing this option
letter prevents any caller of __git_commit_ranges from passing the compadd -C
option.

Is this a problem?  Should we find some other way to pass the name
"git_commit_opts"?  If so, what option letters are available?  (Since "-O" is
available, maybe we could pass both array names in it as '-O
"expl:git_commit_opts"'?  I.e., if a colon is present in the argument
value, split on it, else assume the entire argument is a single
parameter name, as in the conventional "-O expl"?)

The $@ should be double-quoted to avoid eliding empty arguments.

Apart from these two issues, the patch seems ready for commit to me.

Thanks again.
