It's not surprising, since I've done so much hacking on bzr. But I've long thought that the command classes of bzrlib were somewhat redundant, since they only exist to house the "run" method. I think that functions are a better match for subcommands. Unlike bzrlib, script_commands doesn't require declaring options or their types. It's just less friction. > It might be > interesting if you want to go further and add topics, run shell > scripts, etc.: I've no doubt Commandant provides a more polished user experience. I didn't think that was important for utility scripts, but maybe it is. Perhaps we should consider using it for our scripts. Certainly, anything that helps us avoid writing the same old boilerplate for our utility scripts is a win.
