List only local branches when autocompleting git checkout (Zsh)

Raw

git-zsh-checkout-autocomplete-local-only.md

git config --global alias.checkoutr checkout
$EDITOR /usr/local/share/zsh/site-functions/git-completion.bash

...and then modify the file as follows...

-__gitcomp_nl "$(__git_refs '' $track)"
+if [ "$command" = "checkoutr" ]; then
+    __gitcomp_nl "$(__git_refs '' $track)"
+else
+    __gitcomp_nl "$(__git_heads '' $track)"
+fi

... and source your shell (source ~/.bashrc / source ~/.zshrc...).

Use git checkoutr for the default behavior and git checkout (or just gco) for browsing only local branches. Credits to http://cmetcalfe.ca/blog/git-checkout-autocomplete-local-branches-only.html.
