Multiple improvements to tab completion....
Multiple improvements to tab completion. I refactored the API quite a bit, to retain readline compatibility but make it more independent of readline. There's still more to do in cleaning up our init_readline() method, but now the completer objects have separate rlcomplete() and complete() methods. The former uses the quirky readline API with a state flag, while the latter is stateless, takes only text information, and is more suitable for GUIs and other frontends to call programatically. Made other minor fixes to ensure the test suite passes in full. While all this code is a bit messy, we're getting in the direction of the APIs we need in the long run.

.. _set-up-fork:
==================
Set up your fork
==================
First you follow the instructions for :ref:`forking`.
Overview
========
::
git clone git@github.com/your-user-name/ipython.git
cd ipython
git remote add upstream git://github.com/ipython/ipython.git
In detail
=========
Clone your fork
---------------
#. Clone your fork to the local computer with ``git clone
git@github.com:your-user-name/ipython.git``
#. Investigate. Change directory to your new repo: ``cd ipython``. Then
``git branch -a`` to show you all branches. You'll get something
like::
* master
remotes/origin/master
This tells you that you are currently on the ``master`` branch, and
that you also have a ``remote`` connection to ``origin/master``.
What remote repository is ``remote/origin``? Try ``git remote -v`` to
see the URLs for the remote. They will point to your github_ fork.
Now you want to connect to the upstream `ipython github`_ repository, so
you can merge in changes from trunk.
.. _linking-to-upstream:
Linking your repository to the upstream repo
--------------------------------------------
::
cd ipython
git remote add upstream git://github.com/ipython/ipython.git
``upstream`` here is just the arbitrary name we're using to refer to the
main ipython_ repository at `ipython github`_.
Note that we've used ``git://`` for the URL rather than ``git@``. The
``git://`` URL is read only. This means we that we can't accidentally
(or deliberately) write to the upstream repo, and we are only going to
use it to merge into our own code.
Just for your own satisfaction, show yourself that you now have a new
'remote', with ``git remote -v show``, giving you something like::
upstream git://github.com/ipython/ipython.git (fetch)
upstream git://github.com/ipython/ipython.git (push)
origin git@github.com:your-user-name/ipython.git (fetch)
origin git@github.com:your-user-name/ipython.git (push)
