Nice! @kusma @sschuberth @patthoyts any objections?

Because I have core.whitespace=trailing-space,space-before-tab,tab-in-indent,cr-at-eol and committing without '-n' wasn't possible, IIRC.

...and init.templatedir points to a directory containing an enabled pre-commit hook.

OK, so this sounds as if adding -n would actually make sense for the other release.sh files, too. Would you mind adding a separate commit adding -n for all release.sh files?

Will do.

awesome!

Somehow /share/vim/vim74/{g,}vim.exe got lost :-( Will fix.

Closing as PR #170 is a super set of this.
