We could potentially do it with git commit hooks, but the problem is that there's no way to force use of those on
clients(a huge deficiency in git, imho).
The best alternative I've been able to come up with is having hooks in a standard location in the repo and then there's
onefile that people would need to put into their home directory (under ~/.git I think) that would pull all of that
stuffin.
