I probably could do that test differently, like say: echo $# >$GIT_DIR/pre-receive.args and then test that the file contains "0" instead of looking for it to be empty. Not sure why I didn't write it that way in the beginning. > printf '%s\n' "$@" Eh. Since all we care is that the argument count is 0 we probably should be looking at $# and calling it a day. -- Shawn.
