Based on the pre-push.sample file, here is what I've added to my
.git/hooks/pre-push hook:


z40=0000000000000000000000000000000000000000

while read local_ref local_sha remote_ref remote_sha
do
        if [ "$local_sha" = $z40 ]
        then
                # Handle delete
                :
        else
                if [ "$remote_sha" = $z40 ]
                then
                        # New branch, examine all commits
                        range="$local_sha"
                else
                        # Update to existing branch, examine new commits
                        range="$remote_sha..$local_sha"
                fi

                if ! $HOME/bin/check_commits "$range"; then
                        exit 1
                fi
        fi
done

(and I modified check_fixes and check_commits to exit non-zero on failure)


I wonder if we need this in Documentation/maintainer/configure-git.rst
and to put check_commits and check_fixes into tools/ somewhere?

(Though goodness, please never aim your hook at your tree's tools/
directory.)
