Yes, that would be nice, but what if the user has an older version of
git without --list-cmds? No solution has been proposed for those cases
in the bash script.
Most users of the zsh script are decoupled from the corresponding git
version, and since you refused to graduate the scripts out of contrib,
that gives distro maintainers the excuse not to automatically package
the zsh script.
So no, given the current situation, I would rather keep updating them manually.
