Hello list,

I have implemented git pre-received hook successfully. And it works on the repo level.
Could anyone suggest how to call branch level hook please ?
```

If you need to have different hook behaviors depending on the ref that's
about to be updated, just put a conditional in the hook. You get the
name(s) of ref(s) to be updated on stdin.
