I have a number of hooks that I have to install every time I
create/clone a repository.  This patch adds a post-init hook that's
perfect for setting up that sort of stuff.

Why is the --template parameter to clone and init not sufficient?

 Partly that I never remember to include the --template parameter,
partly that I wanted to customize its behaviour (it copies the files,
I want symlinks so I only have to edit my hooks in one place whenever
I change them)
