The only downside is that it's a little harder to keep track of when
the completion script changes (e.g., when you have made your own

It's a generated file -- you're not supposed to edit it! Wouldn't it
be a better idea to edit the program that generates it instead?

However, the method you use provides very *fast* completion (as
opposed to git and hg completion, which generate their keywords on
the fly and thus run relatively slowly).

Yes, I was always irritated by how slow the StGit completion was
compared to git's. Python sucks in this respect.

HOWEVER, please see the threads (which modify the Python that
generates the script):

Yes, I'll take a look.
