i mean that he should implement a generic pre-hook.  one where command
line args, environment variables etc are provided, and the user
writing the hook would implement a pre-commit by adding a case for 
$1 == commit.

the current hook system allows hooks for more then just the commit
command, the proposed patch is a specific hack only for commit.
