I think this is not necessary.  We already run __git_aliases() every
time after 'git <TAB>', and it was not an issue so far.  And indeed, I
just created 50 aliases, and the time required for __git_aliases()
seems to be negligible:

  $ time __git_aliases
  <bunch of aliases>

  real    0m0.028s
  user    0m0.016s
  sys     0m0.004s

Besides, invoking __git_aliases() every time has the benefit that
newly added aliases will appear immediately in completion suggestions.


Best,
Gábor
