Maybe, because I cannot imagine what so vital the administrator can put in it, I really do not see that as a problem. I believe that any good administrator should notify all users about any vital changes anyway, because if these changes are vital, it may be necessary not only change templates in $HOME/.gittemplates/ (which very few users will probably have), but perhaps also in existing repositories... > > Maybe the best idea would be an "init" hook, settable from the config, > after all. I agree that seems to be the best solution as it is more flexible than having $HOME/.gittemplates/. Dmitry
