Remove ".exe" suffix from PowerTab integration

[bradrn]

This small change was necessary to get it working on my system.

What error are you getting or do you just not get tab-completion? I'm curious why removing the extension makes this work. Are you on a non-Windows OS?

[dahlbyk]

@bradrn what does Get-Command git show for you? I'm wondering if this is a difference between an Application in PATH vs an Alias.

Note the original implementation (b35085d via #63) used git.cmd, but was switched to git.exe in #66.

I'm not sure if PowerTab works on PSCore on Linux/macOS but if it does, git there will have no extension at all. Maybe that's what @bradrn is running into.

@rkeithhill:

• (Re Remove ".exe" suffix from PowerTab integration #606 (comment)) I'm not getting an error, there's just no tab-completion. When I don't load PowerTab everything works fine: it's just when I load PowerTab that problems occur.
• (Re Remove ".exe" suffix from PowerTab integration #606 (comment)) I'm using Windows.

@dahlbyk: Get-Command git shows the following:

CommandType     Name                                               Version    Source
-----------     ----                                               -------    ------
Application     git.exe                                            2.10.1.1   C:\Program Files\Git\cmd\git.exe

Hrm... I was going to try this myself, but the PowerTab install failed. Will try to try again soon, if better guidance doesn't come along first.

[bradrn]

Thank you @dahlbyk. I do know that I ran into this problem when I tried to install PowerTab - I eventually fixed it by doing this.

I took a peek at the PowerTab Register-TabExpansion impl. It looks like if git.exe was already registered, the new handler is not added. PowerTab uses the already registered handler. Also, all of the examples I see specify the extension: ssh.exe, netsh.exe, robocopy.exe. I do see that Register-TabExpansion has a -Force parameter. What happens if you put it back to git.exe but add the -Force parameter?

[bradrn]

@rkeithhill It still doesn't work if I add -Force.

(I'm not actually using PowerTab anymore, so this issue doesn't really affect me anymore. But it would still be nice to get this working...)

[rkeithhill]

Considering this only impacts PowerTab tab completion, this looks good to me.

Thank you!
