51f5a2b439 hook: use correct logical variable
Sign-off added should be that of the "committer", not that of the
"commit's author"; that is how the rest of Git adds sign-off using
sequencer.c::append_signoff().

Use the correct logical variable that identifies the committer.

0ef1a4e32a hook: add a simple first example
Add a simple example that replaces an outdated example
that was removed. This ensures that there's at the least
a simple example that illustrates what could be done
using the hook just by enabling it.

Also, update the documentation.

e1a4a28373 hook: add sign-off using "interpret-trailers"
The sample hook to prepare the commit message before
a commit allows users to opt-in to add the sign-off
to the commit message. The sign-off is added at a place
that isn't consistent with the "-s" option of "git commit".
Further, it could go out of view in certain cases.

Add the sign-off in a way similar to "-s" option of
"git commit" using git's interpret-trailers command.

It works well in all cases except when the user invokes
"git commit" without any arguments. In that case manually
add a new line after the first line to ensure it's consistent
with the output of "-s" option.

94eba456b4 hook: name the positional variables
It's always nice to have named variables instead of
positional variables as they communicate their purpose
well.

Appropriately name the positional variables of the hook
to make it easier to see what's going on.

b22a307946 hook: cleanup script
Prepare the 'preare-commit-msg' sample script for
upcoming changes. Preparation includes removal of
an example that has outlived it's purpose. The example
is the one that comments the "Conflicts:" part of a
merge commit message. It isn't relevant anymore as
it's done by default since 261f315b ("merge & sequencer:
turn "Conflicts:" hint into a comment", 2014-08-28).

Further update the relevant comments from the sample script
and update the documentation.

100e762a60 Modernize git calling conventions in hook templates
The hook templates were still using/referencing 'git-foo' instead of
'git foo.'  This patch updates the sample hooks to use the modern
conventions instead.

502be95953 Make templates honour SHELL_PATH and PERL_PATH
The hook script templates were hard coded to use /bin/sh and perl.
This patch ensures that they use the same tools specified for the rest
of the suite.

The impetus for the change was noticing that, as shipped, some of the
hooks used shell constructs that wouldn't work under Solaris' /bin/sh
(eg: $(cmd...) substitutions).

3015fa5846 Fix use of "perl -i" on Windows
The perldiag(1) has following to say about this:

    "Can't do inplace edit without backup"

	(F) You're on a system such as MS-DOS that gets confused if
	you try reading from a deleted (but still opened) file. You
	have to say -i.bak, or some such.

f98f8cbac0 Ship sample hooks with .sample suffix
We used to mark hooks we ship as samples by making them unexecutable, but
some filesystems cannot tell what is executable and what is not.

This makes it much more explicit.  The hooks are suffixed with .sample
(but now are made executable), so enabling it is still one step operation
(instead of "chmod +x $hook", you would do "mv $hook.sample $hook") but
now they won't get accidentally enabled on systems without executable bit.
