[PATCH] Clean up file descriptors when calling hooks.

When calling post-update hook, don't leave stdin and stdout connected to the pushing connection.

Signed-off-by: Daniel Barkalow <barkalow@iabervon.org>

Someone who's got a better idea of what they should be instead should revise this to make it not just use /dev/null. This does fix my particular test, though; it doesn't cause a post-update hook to crash if it writes to stdout when pushing locally.
