Description

Fish's current completions for GnuPG are written for 1.x. They incompletely cover GPG 2.x and include options or subcommands that were removed in the second version. The exact differences between the two tools, with respect to their CLIs, can be viewed with the following set of commands:

gpg1 --dump-options > gpg1options
gpg2 --dump-options > gpg2options
sed -i -e 's/^/gpg1 /' gpg1options
sed -i -e 's/^/gpg2 /' gpg2options
sort -k2 gpg1options gpg2options | uniq -u -f 1 | sort

With recent versions of both tools, this generates the following list of version-specific commands.

This set of completions is mostly copied from fish's existing completions for GPG. It removes GPG 1.x-specific completions and adds GPG 2.x-specific completions.

The following was discussed briefly in #2401, but remained unresolved. On many systems, gpg is symlinked to gpg2-- when this is the case, it would be more appropriate to use these completions than fish's current ones (with gpg2 in the completion script replaced with gpg). gpg.fish could test for the GPG version and activate version-specific completions depending on the result. Something like the following:

if test (gpg --version | sed '1q;d' | cut -b 13 ) -eq 2
    [gpg2-specific completions]
else
    [gpg1-specific completions]
end

This would be fairly trivial for me to do if you guys are okay with it.

TODOs:

• Changes to fish usage are reflected in user documentation/manpages.
• Tests have been added for regressions fixed
• User-visible changes noted in CHANGELOG.md
