If we want to make this part of the sample hooks shown to everybody,
we should stick to /bin/sh if we could.  Do you have to rely on any
bash-ism that are not found in other shells to write this script, or
is this just shows your inertia that you always work with bash?

Strictly speaking, a parameter on the right hand side of an
assignment does not have to get dquoted to protect it from getting
munged at $IFS, so this can be

	commit=$1

but it gives us an important clue.  If $1 is worth protecting from
getting munged at $IFS, then we should assume later use of $commit
must be careful the same way.

Leftover debugging statement to be removed (instead of commented
out).

Style (Documentation/CodingGudielines).  One level of indent is a
single tab byte in our codebase.

Style (Documentation/CodingGudielines).

This is "failed to refresh" (in other words, not being up-to-date is
OK and that is not what we are checking), but the patch is meant as
a faithful translation of the original, so it is OK here.

Is ">&/dev/null" portable?  I'd rather see it written like

	git cat-file -t HEAD >/dev/null 2>&1

to be portable.

cf. https://pubs.opengroup.org/onlinepubs/9699919799/utilities/V3_chap02.html#tag_18_07 

But there is a better way to spell it (see below).

> +    head=HEAD
> +else
> +    head=4b825dc642cb6eb9a060e54bf8d69288fbee4904

This hardcodes the object name from SHA-1 world, and will break
after the user migrates to SHA-256.

Here is probably a better version.

	if git cat-file -e HEAD
	then
		head=HEAD
	else
		head=$(git hash-object -t tree --stdin </dev/null)
	fi

You forgot "" around $commit here.  Here, an $IFS byte in $commit will
get the command line munged.  I.e.

	if ! git read-tree -u -m "$commit"
	then
		...

Thanks.
