Also, some options require still a special handling. The best idea seems to write a Python script sourcing the Stgit source (stgit/main.py to get commands, and then loading each class and iterating over the "options" module member). I'm not fluent in Python enough currently, but when I'll find time I'll probably study a bit reflection and write this down (my Python experience amounts to some random readings on reviews and a couple of days with Python docs). > >> if so, do you have any more formalised distribution process (like a > >> git repo!) rather than grabbing code out of email list postings?

Btw, what do you think about speeding up completions by reimplementing things like "stg applied" or "stg unapplied" via cat (as noted in the comments at the beginning of the script)? Tab completions can easily livelock a shell on a busy system, so it's worthy speeding the thing up. > Thanks. -- Inform me of my mistakes, so I can keep imitating Homer Simpson's "Doh!".
