ln -sf even.

Wouldn't it thus make sense to check during authentication that the
symlink exists and points to the right file, and to deny access
completely if that isn't the case?

Having a mass-update command for this might be nice, but I suppose
it's also a trivial shell one-liner...
for i (**/*.git/hooks/update) \
ln -sf ~git/.gitolite/src/hooks/update $i
(this is zsh, not sure bash can do this yet)
