was just perusing the sample hook scripts, and the sample pre-commit script provided with git does the following check: # If you want to allow non-ASCII filenames set this variable to true. allownonascii=$(git config --bool hooks.allownonascii) but that config variable (hooks.allownonascii) is not mentioned in any man page. its entire existence in the git code base consists of: $ grep -r allownonascii * templates/hooks--pre-commit.sample:allownonascii=$(git config --bool hooks.allownonascii) templates/hooks--pre-commit.sample:if [ "$allownonascii" != "true" ] && templates/hooks--pre-commit.sample: git config hooks.allownonascii true technically, there's nothing wrong with that, i just thought it was a bit weird that a sample hook script refers to a config variable that is not referred to in any way elsewhere. should i care? rday
