Bash completion for Maven escapes colon

Question

I added bash completion for Maven following the docs:

http://maven.apache.org/guides/mini/guide-bash-m2-completion.html

Everything works well except for goal

Answer 1

I'd go with the Maven2 Bash Completion File at willcodeforbeer.com.

• works great
• handles colons
• doesn't muck up global variable COMP_WORDBREAKS (thereby breaking scp, etc)
• easy to edit and understand

Hope that helps!
