Isn't that what I have essentially been saying? For sites that do not want per-user customizable "other commands", have a single site-wide hook instead of having to create otherwise empty shell-commands directories for all users. For users a site wants to allow customized commands, have the directory and custom "help" message. I do not care too deeply if "help" exiting non-zero caused the connection closed, but I care about not forcing a lot of effort to customize messages to people who do *not* need customizability. -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
