      This was filed upstream but decided the better way to go is to
      configure default git templates to be just empty.
    
      Until we implement that, we continue to carry this patch as NXD ]
    
    gitlab-shell uses completely own whole set of git hooks and just
    symlinks repo.git/hooks to path/to/gitlab-shell/hooks/.
    
    Original hooks that git added there - when initializing repository -
    from its template, and which are by default deactivated, are currently
    moved to repos.git/hooks.old.<timestamp>, e.g.
    
    $ ls -F nexedi/helloweb.git/
        config
        description
        HEAD
        hooks@                  -->  ...path/to/gitlab-shell/hooks/
        hooks.old.1446564288/
        info/
        packed-refs
        refs/
    
    $ ls -F nexedi/helloweb.git/hooks.old.1446564288/
        applypatch-msg.sample*
        post-update.sample*
        pre-commit.sample*
        pre-push.sample*
        update.sample*
        commit-msg.sample*
        pre-applypatch.sample*
        prepare-commit-msg.sample*
        pre-rebase.sample*
    
    On the other hand, hooks.old.<timestamp> are not used anywhere and are
    left there "just in case". But what is the point to keep those pristine
    samples git creates by default? And we are sure those files are always
    results of gitlab-shell initializing a repository, as it is
    gitlab-shell's job to create/remove/update/etc repositories.
    
    So do not keep old hooks, remove them.
    
    P.S. The patch that introduced whole-hooks-dir-symlinking is
        db81327b (Symlink the whole hooks directory).
