sometimes you're not able to place a hook into the repository - e.g.
in large scaled projects, when you work as a consultant.

The same, you can only try to teach, every day and your colleagues
learn each day, more and more.
But version control can still be a little bit, let me say: difficult.

Right, but most of the time, the users won't use the shell - that
could sometimes be your luck.

Let me say, they are afraid of it, like a developer branch and so on.

I agree, but sometimes you doesn't have the admin priviledges granted
and this feature could also save your day.
I requested this feature based on own experiences.

Finally, you're right, best solution is to prevent this via hook-
scripts.
But this "convention supporting" feature would also be great.
