+proc-receive
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This hook is invoked by linkgit:git-receive-pack[1]. If the server has
+set the multi-valued config variable `receive.procReceiveRefs`, and the
+commands sent to 'receive-pack' have matching reference names, these
+commands will be executed by this hook, instead of by the internal
+`execute_commands()` function. This hook is responsible for updating
+the relevant references and reporting the results back to 'receive-pack'.
+
+This hook executes once for the receive operation. It takes no
+arguments, but uses a pkt-line format protocol to communicate with
+'receive-pack' to read commands, push-options and send results. In the
+following example for the protocol, the letter 'S' stands for
+'receive-pack' and the letter 'H' stands for this hook.

+ # Send commands from server to the hook.
+ S: PKT-LINE(<old-oid> <new-oid> <ref>)

+
+Each command for the 'proc-receive' hook may point to a pseudo-reference
+and always has a zero-old as its old-oid, while the 'proc-receive' hook
+may update an alternate reference and the alternate reference may exist
+already with a non-zero old-oid. For this case, this hook will use
+"option" directives to report extended attributes for the reference given
+by the leading "ok" directive.
+
+The report of the commands of this hook should have the same order as
+the input. The exit status of the 'proc-receive' hook only determines
+the success or failure of the group of commands sent to it, unless
+atomic push is in use.

+reference-transaction
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This hook is invoked by any Git command that performs reference
+updates. It executes whenever a reference transaction is prepared,
+committed or aborted and may thus get called multiple times.
+
+The hook takes exactly one argument, which is the current state the
+given reference transaction is in:
+
+ - "prepared": All reference updates have been queued to the
+ transaction and references were locked on disk.
+
+ - "committed": The reference transaction was committed and all
+ references now have their respective new value.
+
+ - "aborted": The reference transaction was aborted, no changes
+ were performed and the locks have been released.
+
+For each reference update that was added to the transaction, the hook
+receives on standard input a line of the format:
+
+ <old-value> SP <new-value> SP <ref-name> LF
+
+The exit status of the hook is ignored for any state except for the
+"prepared" state. In the "prepared" state, a non-zero exit status will
+cause the transaction to be aborted. The hook will not be called with
+"aborted" state in that case.

+p4-changelist
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This hook is invoked by `git-p4 submit`.
+
+The `p4-changelist` hook is executed after the changelist
+message has been edited by the user. It can be bypassed with the
+`--no-verify` option. It takes a single parameter, the name
+of the file that holds the proposed changelist text. Exiting
+with a non-zero status causes the command to abort.
+
+The hook is allowed to edit the changelist file and can be used
+to normalize the text into some project standard format. It can
+also be used to refuse the Submit after inspect the message file.

+
+p4-prepare-changelist
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This hook is invoked by `git-p4 submit`.
+
+The `p4-prepare-changelist` hook is executed right after preparing
+the default changelist message and before the editor is started.
+It takes one parameter, the name of the file that contains the
+changelist text. Exiting with a non-zero status from the script
+will abort the process.
+
+The purpose of the hook is to edit the message file in place,
+and it is not supressed by the `--no-verify` option. This hook
+is called even if `--prepare-p4-only` is set.
