There have been at least a couple of submissions to add support for a pre-push hook, which were rejected at least partially because they didn't provide enough information to a hook script for it to determine what was to be pushed any better than a separate wrapper around the 'git push' command would be able to do. In this series I attempt to address that problem. The first two patches in this series do a little bit of refactoring in order to make it easier to call hooks with a variable number of arguments. The third patch actually adds support for calling a pre-push hook. If it exists, it will be called with the name and URL of the destination remote (if a named remote isn't being used, the URL will be supplied for both) followed by another argument for each ref being pushed; these arguments take the form: <local ref>:<local sha1>:<remote ref>:<remote sha1> This should provide enough information for a script to easily determine the set of commits that is being pushed, and thus make a decision if that should be allowed. The final patch adds a sample pre-push hook script which will deny attempts to push commits that are marked as a work in progress.
