Alternatively you can put the above code in ~/.bash-completion and add this line to your .bashrc:
{{{
[ -f ~/.bash-completion ] && source ~/.bash-completion

'''Update'''

I'd like to propose an updated version of the bash_completion script for symfony that supports both symfony 1.0 and symfony 1.1, as well as properly tab completing symfony commands regardless of whether you are using a version of symfony installed on your system via PEAR or a similar mechanism, or symfony in a frozen installation (As ususal, YMMV. This completion script works fine for me using symfony 1.0.16 installed via PEAR and a sf_sandbox using symfony 1.1.0-RC1. Also, this will most probably not work correctly if you attempt to use this with a version of symfony less than 1.0).

Without further ado...
