Would patches introducing new git hooks, e.g. for post-fetch, be eligible for acceptance? If a more detailed explanation about a specific use case is required, I'd be happy to provide it.

Btw, the link in the README http://news.gmane.org/gmane.comp.version-control.git/ is dead.

The general guidelines for adding hooks is laid out here:

One interesting follow-up, though (which seems sensible to me):

[PATCH] README: replace gmane link with public-inbox

Yes, the status of gmane was up in the air for a while, but I think we can give it up as dead now (at least for our purposes).

Subject: README: replace gmane link with public-inbox

The general status and future of gmane is unclear at this point, but certainly it does not seem to be carrying gmane.comp.version-control.git at all anymore. Let's point to public-inbox.org, which seems to be the favored archive on the list these days (and which uses message-ids in its URLs, making the links somewhat future-proof).

s/http/nntp/ still works for gmane.

No objections, here.

There's also https://mail-archive.com/git@vger.kernel.org Where https://mid.mail-archive.com/<Message-ID> also works

Yes, but do we want to be exhaustive here, of just cite one that is a useful starting point? I think it is the latter.

Mentioning nntp for those who prefer (including me) may have value, though.
