This is pretty much what I do as well. I keep all my scripts and check
them into subversion though. I edit them with vim and use the dbext
plugin to run snippets on the test db.
Once I'm ready I run it on production. (Could be an entire file, or
just a copy/paste of a block) I use psql for everything. (vim dbext
uses psql as well)
It doesn't seem that clunky though. You do a bunch of stuff on testdb,
once you get it right you do it on livedb. I don't see any other ways
of doing it.
