The alternatives suggested need to be applied individually to each
repository. This can be problematic because you may want repository-specific
scripts as well. Then when you update your global hooks you have to deal
with merging with your repository-specific scripts. Using templates is not
ideal because it is system-wide and they still need to be renamed for every
clone or init.
