Should documentation be part of githooks or git-svn man page ?
I vote for the latest, in order to avoid
In any case, what do you think of the following help message ?

As for the 'whitespace damage", I do not understand what you mean.
The \n look mandatory to me.
You may look at 'info perlfunc' for the original code snippet (see 
'system' function).

I'd also put it in the git-svn page, since git-svn is somehow not really
part of Git.

I'd say "an SVN", not "a SVN", but the documentation already use both
forms.

I'm not talking about the \n, but the fact that what used to be a single
line of code is broken in two parts in your message.

A patch hunk has lines starting with " ", "+" or "-", yours have a line
starting with $. It won't apply with "patch" or "git apply", hence extra
work for our maintainer.

Try using "git send-email" to avoid that.

And actually, read Documentation/SubmittingPatches, in particular the
part about Signed-off-by.

The 'pre-svn-dcommit' hook is called by 'git svn dcommit' and can be used to
prevent some diff to be committed to a SVN repository. It may typically be
used to filter some intermediate patches, which were committed into git but
must not find their way to the SVN repository.

It takes a single parameter, the reference given to 'git svn dcommit'. If the
hook exists with a non zero-status, 'git svn dcommit' will abort.

Why 2 patches?

We usually try to have each commit as correct as possible (e.g. when
sending several patches, each commit should still pass the testsuite).
With your 2-patches serie, the first commit has documentation for a
feature which doesn't exist yet.

I find it easier to separate commits on documentation from code patch, 
especially for rereading and dicussing.
However, if it is desirable to get them merged, I could do that easily.

As for the order :
patch 1/2 : perl magic
patch 2/2 : documentation update
=>  the serie looks in the right order to me.

There was no remark about patch v2.
I suppose it should be OK for merging upstream.
