"git <cmd> --git-completion-helper" could fail if the command checks for
a repo before parse_options(). If the result is cached, later on when
the user moves to a worktree with repo, tab completion will still fail.
Avoid this by detecting errors and not cache the completion output. We
can try again and hopefully succeed next time (e.g. when a repo is
found).
Of course if --git-completion-helper fails permanently because of other
reasons (*), this will slow down completion. But I don't see any better
option to handle that case.
(*) one of those cases is if __gitcomp_builtin is called on a command
that does not support --git-completion-helper. And we do have a
generic call
__git_complete_common "$command"
but this case is protected with __git_support_parseopt_helper so we're
good.
