Git receive/update hooks and new branches

Send mail after git commit not push

I need to send email with diff after commit to the repository. I know how to send emails after push, but it is not working for commits.

git: empty arguments in post-receive hook

I'm writing post-receive hook basing on the post-receive-email script from the contrib dir, but it seems that the oldrev and newrev arguments are empty.

Prevent pushes to git containing tabs in certain files (e.g. *.cpp, *.h, CMakeLists.txt)

I'd like my remote repository to refuse any pushes that contains a file that contains a tab, but only if the file belongs in a certain class (based on the filename). Is that possible? I have looked a bit at the update hook in githooks, and I think that is the correct one. So in short, a push should be rejected if: there is a file of ...

getting "fatal: not a git repository: '.'" when using post-update hook to execute 'git pull' on another repo

I'm new to git so I apologize (and please correct me) if I misuse terminology here, but I'll do my best.
