[PATCH 2/3] Don't load missing ACL files in paranoid update hook

From: Shawn O. Pearce <spearce@spearce.org>
Date: May 26, 2008, 02:18 UTC
Message-ID: <20080526021801.GB29990@spearce.org>

If a user or group ACL file does not exist in the current tip revision of the acl repository we will get an error from cat-file when we ask for that blob as it cannot be resolved. A quick look at the history by rev-list can tell us if there is a path there or not.
