No, it wasn't. As of March 2008, git<DASH> was still in the sample hooks and in git-web. That was the last time I did anything with git scripting. It was something between then and now that the <DASH>'s were finally removed.

Oh wait:

     dhcp-2:git wagle$ grep -r --color git- . | wc -l
         6580
     dhcp-2:git wagle$

No, I'm not going to figure out which are okay, and which aren't. I'll just assume that they are all okay, but leave you to wonder.

PS.  Okay, fine!  Here's as far as I got before getting bored:

     grep -r git- . | cat -v | sed "s/^.*\(git-[^ :\")\[($\']*\).*$/ 
\1/" | sort | uniq
