Having said that, if it truly is a normal and expected state that no hook is defined for the given name, I actually think there should be no message. > + } > + > + list_for_each(pos, head) { > + struct hook *item = list_entry(pos, struct hook, list); > + item = list_entry(pos, struct hook, list); > + if (item) > + printf("%s\n", item->hook_path); > + } > diff --git a/hook.c b/hook.c > index 37f682c6d8..2714b63473 100644 > --- a/hook.c > +++ b/hook.c > @@ -96,22 +96,20 @@ int hook_exists(const char *name) > struct list_head* hook_list(const char* hookname) > { > struct list_head *hook_head = xmalloc(sizeof(struct list_head)); > + const char *hook_path = find_hook(hookname); > + > > INIT_LIST_HEAD(hook_head); > > if (!hookname) > return NULL; > > - if (have_git_dir()) { > - const char *hook_path = find_hook(hookname); > - > - /* Add the hook from the hookdir */ > - if (hook_path) { > - struct hook *to_add = xmalloc(sizeof(*to_add)); > - to_add->hook_path = hook_path; > - to_add->feed_pipe_cb_data = NULL; > - list_add_tail(&to_add->list, hook_head); > - } > + /* Add the hook from the hookdir */ > + if (hook_path) { > + struct hook *to_add = xmalloc(sizeof(*to_add)); > + to_add->hook_path = hook_path; > + to_add->feed_pipe_cb_data = NULL; > + list_add_tail(&to_add->list, hook_head); > } I do not think this belongs to the step to add "list" command. The log message does not explain or justify why have-git-dir goes away, either.
