Thanks, I'm gonna post another version via submitGit. I'm not sure how to send the "cover letter" via submitGit so I'm just gonna explain the patch here and then send it in another message. First, I changed the name of the config to "advice.ignoredHook" since it's more generic and it will allow us to add other cases such as the bad permission case.. > But for the purpose of your patch, you now do care. access(X_OK) > may have failed with EACCESS (i.e. you have no permission to run the > script), in which case your new advise() call may make sense.

I've now added a EACCES check. But I see two shortcomings left: - the message is shown twice (for a "pre-commit" hook at least) - I tried to take into account the STRIP_EXTENSION case but it's not tested yet > Writing a test would have helped notice this, I would think.

I've tried `grep -v` and similar things but this solution is the only one that I found that really works. Thanks for the review, see PATCH in a coming email.
