My (ahem) implied point (sorry) also was that these "hook" scripts act
as examples of how to write git scripts in general, and some of them
are written to me run as regular scripts.

Yes, and some of the test scripts still have git-* in them. I think

Not at all.
For one thing, hooks do run under modified PATH, as already pointed
out in
the earlier thread.
Test scripts are executed in a special environment whose GIT_EXEC_PATH
points at the top of the build tree, where all git-foo lives.
Before anybody greps in Documentation/ to make pointless noises
about some
dashed-form git-foo in there when we do not talk about what the user
types
but about a command as a concept in manual pages, they are left in
dashed
form deliberately, partly to help manpage browsers crosslink across
pages.
We could have described typographic convention,

but we ended up not doing so.
