As I said the last time this was posted, this was done on purpose so that the command line arguments match the order of the arguments to the update hook. Keeping them in that order allows the script to be used as an update hook in older versions of git. Whether that is sensible or not is for Junio and the gang to decide; but there was good reason for doing it that way. Also, I'm not sure what documentation you're talking about - use in command line mode is a bonus feature anyway, it's not necessary in normal hook mode anyway. If you're going to be strict about matching documentation then the command line mode should be removed.
