Two questions:

   1. In the future, should we add a capabilities check in pre-commit?
      (I haven't thought deeply about what's involved in doing that, but
      hey, we could at least get newer clients and servers doing it
      reliably -- the rest is a compatibility dance).

   2. I don't quite understand your last paragraph. How is whether or
      not we can check a capability related to which paths the user is
      committing on? Could you say it more verbosely, maybe?
