I agree that it would better live in src:dgit.
But I have a concern about how to keep it up to date. That's why I
suggested autogenerating it from the option parser.
However, I looked at the attachment
https://bugs.debian.org/cgi-bin/bugreport.cgi?att=1;bug=928704;filename=dgit_completion;msg=27
and well, I'm really not sure I can do something sane to generate
that from the source code.
Do you have any suggestions ? Surely users of bash completion[1]
wouldn't like it if new options didn't autocomplete just because the
completions hadn't been updated.
Ian.
[1] This generally doesn't include me precisely because IME things
often turn out not to complete properly. So maybe I am being too
precious.
