I know it's only an example, but having this might save someone else the
trouble of writing an enhanced version for themselves.
It basically does the same job as the old update hook, but with these
differences:
* The recipients list is read from the repository config file from
hooks.mailinglist
* Updating unannotated tags can be allowed by setting
hooks.allowunannotated
* Announcement emails (via annotated tag creation) can be sent to a
different mailing list by setting hooks.announcelist
* Output email is more verbose and generates specific content depending
on whether the ref is a tag, an annotated tag, a branch, or a
tracking branch
* The email is easier to filter; the subject line is prefixed with
[SCM] and a project description pulled from the "description" file
* It catches (and displays differently) branch updates that are
performed with a --force
Obviously, it's nothing that clever - it's the update hook I use on my
repositories but I've tried to keep it general, and tried to make the
output always relevant to the type of update.

I've sent this as a 2/2 patch after the first one; it's not really true that
they're a pair - but this one includes the same fix. Further, it's less
likely that this one will be accepted as there is no pressing need for it. :-)

+# It can also blocks tags that aren't annotated.
# Called by git-receive-pack with arguments: refname sha1-old sha1-new

-# (1) change the recipient e-mail address

+# To enable this hook, make this file executable by "chmod +x update".
#
+# Config
+# ------
+# hooks.mailinglist
+# This is the list that all pushes will go to; leave it blank to not send
+# emails frequently. The log email will list every log entry in full between
+# the old ref value and the new ref value.
+# hooks.announcelist
+# This is the list that all pushes of annotated tags will go to. Leave it
+# blank to just use the mailinglist field. The announce emails list the
+# short log summary of the changes since the last annotated tag
+# hooks.allowunannotated
+# This boolean sets whether unannotated tags will be allowed into the
+# repository. By default they won't be.
+#
+# Notes
+# -----
+# All emails have their subjects prefixed with "[SCM]" to aid filtering.
+# All emails include the headers "X-Git-Refname", "X-Git-Oldrev",
+# "X-Git-Newrev", and "X-Git-Reftype" to enable fine tuned filtering and info.
