Go on as far as I'm concerned.

I also have an idea for another hook, which is interesing for git-users (or
users of other systems which lets you batch up commits before actually
submitting them).  There are often some deprecation warnings which one can do
very little about and which clog the compiler output to the point where one
overlooks other more important messages.  For instance, the EntitySeed stuff.
I can disable these warnings locally and store the necessary changes in a
commit which I never indend to submit to the svn.  However, each time I submit
my batched up commits I have to make sure not to commit these local commits as
well.  Another candidate would be a local commit with .gitignore files.

My idea to avoid accidents of this kind is as follows: I start the commit
message for the local commits with something like "!DON'T COMMIT!", and a hook
on the server then rejects any commit which has this marker.  Would this be
difficult to implement?

Bye,
Jö.
