Only .exe, .cmd, and .bat, although there was some thought into using
%PATHEXT% to determine which extensions to allow.

Yes.

I think you're being bitten by the fact that you cannot rely on the
current working directory being hooks/. Try setting explicitly the
current directory on you pre-commit hook, or else use a full path when
pointing to the text file.

Something like:

@ECHO OFF
ECHO REPOS-PATH = %1 >> c:\my.log
ECHO TXN = %2 >> c:\my.log

should work (and in fact does, in my setup).
