[PATCH v2 3/4] git-p4: add hook p4-pre-edit-changelist

Message-ID
<1bdcdc4c18b9d8fa3cc5a9c846fb855182330d05.1580507895.git.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
In-Reply-To
<pull.698.v2.git.git.1580507895.gitgitgadget@gmail.com>
From: Ben Keene <seraphire@gmail.com>

Add an additional hook to the git-p4 command to allow a hook to modify the text of the changelist prior to displaying the p4editor command.

This hook will be called prior to checking for the flag "--prepare-p4-only".

The hook is optional, if it does not exist, it will be skipped.

The hook takes a single parameter, the filename of the temporary file that contains the P4 submit text.

The hook should return a zero exit code on success or a non-zero exit code on failure. If the hook returns a non-zero exit code, git-p4 will revert the P4 edits by calling p4_revert(f) on each file that was flagged as edited and then it will return False so the calling method may continue as it does in existing failure cases.
