Sorry I missed this thread earlier. I'll drop this if it's not something

This is exactly the way gitolite works. It's placed between git-server
and git-client. Does some checks and approves a connection if some
criterias isn't met. See the example when trying to clone an
non-existing repo from gitolite. You won't get an git error but a
gitolite error.

I can understand why my idea is beeing rejected but I can't see why the
gitolite way should be considered sane. It seems more like an hack to
me (according to git design principles).

So from a git point of view, why is it sane for passing through STDERR
but not STDIN and STDOUT?

(I realize that this is a closed matter but would appriciate an
explanation solely for my own educational purpose).
