I know a few people are annoyed by the sheer volume of commit emails
we generate, and now that I have taken control of the git hooks, I
think we can trivially fix this.

The only reason this is happening is because I don't have the ability
to make commits from my current consulting client, so I make all
change on the outside, commit, and then pull them anonymously to build
them internally.   While I use topic branches for all of this, the
commit hook sends email for everything pushed to origin, regardless of
the branch.

I think it makes sense to add a simple wrapper hook that does nothing
is the ref isn't refs/heads/master,  This will mean we revert to the
"normal" commit emails, namely only when a completed branch is merged
with master and pushed.  You won't have to see all of my "Oops"
commits until the final merge is done.

I should have this implemented very shortly....
