Thanks; but I don't ship any ancient hooks, so this probably wants to be
sent to whoever still have them displayed on their sites.

I gave a quick read to the shell one, and I found it reasonable.  Thanks
for sharing.

One tiny nit is the "git --exec-path" bit, though.  You don't seem to use
any ancient "git-frotz" form, so it is not just unnecessary but is
misleading.  I'd recommend to just drop it.

Another tiny nit is that you _might_ want to make it fail loudly if
somebody copies this out of contrib/ without changing $project properly,
instead of spamming cia with bogus messages claiming that they pertain to
the GPSD project.

Thanks.  Could you send a signed-off patch that creates contrib/ciabot/
directory, and places these two files in there, with a README describing
that you are the maintainer of these tools?
