Subject: [PATCH 1/3] git-completion.bash: use correct Bash/Zsh array length
 syntax

The syntax for retrieving the number of elements in an array is:

   ${#name[@]}

Subject: [PATCH 2/3] t9902-completion.sh: old Bash still does not support
 array+=('') notation

Old Bash (3.0) which is distributed with RHEL 4.X and other ancient
platforms that are still in wide use, does not understand the
array+=() notation.  Let's use an explicit assignment to the new array
element which works everywhere, like:

   array[${#array[@]}+1]=''

The right-hand side '' is not strictly necessary, but in this case
I think it is more clear.

Subject: [PATCH 3/3] contrib/git-prompt.sh: handle missing 'printf -v' more
 gracefully

Old Bash (3.0) which is distributed with RHEL 4.X and other ancient
platforms that are still in wide use, do not have a printf that
supports -v.  Neither does Zsh (which is already handled in the code).

As suggested by Junio, let's test whether printf supports the -v
option and store the result.  Then later, we can use it to
determine whether 'printf -v' can be used, or whether printf
must be called in a subshell.
