Hello all,

I am trying to write a hook '.git/hooks/commit-msg' to be run before
every commit.

How can I pass arguments to the script? Now by default the only arg I
am getting is `.git/COMMIT_EDITMSG'`. I would love to get the list of
files I tried to commit also into the script so that I can run a lint
program on it before committing it. How can I get this done?

V/r,
