No worries, but I'm not sure what language you are writing in here?
Bash? If so kill the quotes I think. Unless you need them for passing
the variables.

In that case when there are strings around a variable in Bash I think
you need to quote the variable in {}'s. It can be tricky.

For testing try this.
   env -i /safe/hooks/post-commit /safe 48
This should truly empty your environment variables AFAIK.  Check `env`'s
man page for more info.

No log file I know of.  If you want one (you are mostly making one by
building an email for each revision) you need to make one in the script.
Nice to see you trying to answer some questions on the list too!
