--- I couldn't figure out why my prepare-commit-msg wasn't being honored by git merge. I assumed that the standard commit hooks would be honored, as after-all, merge is creating a new commit. Alas, this is not the case since merge calls commit_tree directly. I wonder whether the low-level commit_tree should be responsible for invoking this hook instead of the commit porcelain? In any case, this does what I want, but I'm not sure it's the best approach.
