Thanks for the corrections.
As you can see, I'm not very expert in bash programming.
I will review the code to use proper escaping and correct optional
parameters handling, based on your review.

In this case, I incorrectly assumed that bash expands ${1} to an empty
string, in case no arguments are passed to the function.

Ok.

Ok.
Here I should use ${1-}.

No, I simply missed it.

Yes, this seems the better solution.

No, it was not intended. But here it should probably be ${2-}.

One possible rule is:
    * ${n+"$n"} should be used by the _git_complete_xxx_file function;
    * ${n-} should be used by the _git_xxx_file functions

The alternative is for each function to use ${n-}, or {n+"$n"}.

But I'm not sure.  What is the best practice in bash for optional
parameters "propagation"?

I missed it.
Vim do not intent correctly this, and I forgot to dedent.

Currently it is always "HEAD", but in future it may contain an arbitrary
tree-ish (for my planned "git reset" path completion support).
This is the reason why in version 3 of the patch I added this new
__git_complete_diff_index_file function.

Better to quote it.

> Unquoted ${pfx} given to __git_diff_index_files also looks fishy.

I missed it.
