[PATCH] contrib/hooks/post-receive-email: Fix solaris portability issues.

[Thomas Moulard <thomas.moulard@gmail.com>]

This patch solves some issues I had on a Solaris system:
$ showrev -c /bin/sh | grep version
Command version: SunOS 5.10 Generic 121005-03 Oct 2006

1. Replace $(...) by backquotes.
2. Replace shell substitution ${var##word} by echo + sed
3. Replace grep -F by fgrep.

These portability problems are reported in Autoconf documentation:
http://www.gnu.org/software/hello/manual/autoconf/Shell-Substitutions.html#Shell-Substitutions
