You're talking (once again) about a post-commit script making a
commit. That leads to infinite loops, remember? (Unless you're
extremely clever.) :-)

A pre-commit script won't work either, because if it changes the
transaction just before committing, then the client believes that HEAD
looks different than it really does. (i.e. the client thinks the
newly added file has no props.)
