Re: [PATCH v2 3/3] hook-list.h: add a generated list of hooks, like config-list.h

> 
> Make githooks(5) the source of truth for what hooks git supports, and
> die hooks we don't know about in find_hook(). This ensures that the
> documentation and the C code's idea about existing hooks doesn't
> diverge.
> 
> We still have Perl and Python code running its own hooks, but that'll
> be addressed by Emily Shaffer's upcoming "git hook run" command.
> 
> This resolves a long-standing TODO item in bugreport.c of there being
> no centralized listing of hooks, and fixes a bug with the bugreport
> listing only knowing about 1/4 of the p4 hooks. It didn't know about
> the recent "reference-transaction" hook either.
