Yeah, I agree one loop is nicer.

-       argv_array_push(&proc.args, hook);
        for (cmd = commands; cmd; cmd = cmd->next) {
                if (cmd->error_string || cmd->did_not_exist)
                        continue;
+               if (!proc.args.argc)
+                       argv_array_push(&proc.args, hook);
                argv_array_push(&proc.args, cmd->ref_name);
        }
+       if (!proc.args.argc)
+               return;

It looks at first like the result leaks, because you have to realize
that the push will modify proc.args.argc. I wonder if:

  argv_array_push(&proc.args, hook);
  for (cmd = commands; cmd; cmd = cmd->next) {
        if (!cmd->error_string && !cmd->did_not_exist)
                argv_array_push(&proc.args, cmd->ref_name);
  }

  if (proc.args.argc == 1) {
        argv_array_clear(&proc.args);
        return;
  }

would be more obvious (at the cost of a pointless malloc in the corner
case. I can live with it either way.

Sure, that's even simpler. I don't know how often the no-args branch would be taken and if the extra allocation would even matter -- that's why I tried to avoid it -- but probably the answers are not often and not much. The only test case that hits it is for the deletion of a non-existent ref.
