Seems to work great. I've got a local clone of that set up now, with
workdirs for backbranches (per the "Committing Using a Single Clone and
multiple workdirs" instructions I added to the Committing_with_Git wiki
page).

I also tested with a bunch of funny commits, including merge commits,
non-fast-forward commits and a commit with bogus Committer, and the
post-commit hook correctly rejected all those.

My posts to that lists are been stalled, but looking at the commit mail
in the "stalled post" reply it looks OK.

Good work! Thanks for spending the time on this, I very much prefer
working with git nowadays.
