did they? from what i've read here, they only reacted to our previous
input.

1) this explicitly covers the post-receive hook, not the pre-receive
one.

2) part of my script needs to be on gitorious anyway (see the note
about the race condition in my script). or in git itself, in the best
case.

3) this is subject to connectivity problems. while the post-receive
thing could kinda work if complete atomic ref snapshots are queued, it
is a non-starter for a pre-receive hook (which needs to be called in
real-time).
