[PATCH] sample pre-commit hook: don't trigger when recording a merge

From: Nanako Shiraishi <nanako3@lavabit.com>
Date: Jan 8, 2010, 23:16 UTC
Message-ID: <20100109081652.6117@nanako3.lavabit.com>

When recording a merge, even if there are problematic whitespace errors, let them pass, because the damage has already been done in the history. If this hook triggers, it will invite a novice to fix such errors in a merge commit but such a change is not related to the merge. Don't encourage it.
