Hello. I am serving a git hosting service for my company.
Sometimes I want to send a warning message to users who use my
service; e.g. the service will be shutdown tomorrow for a while
temporary.
I know it is possible to a remote message by hooks or HTTP body if an
error occured. But it seems that there is no hooks for git-fetch and
git does not print HTTP body if there is no error.
I want a way to response a remote message when a client send any kind
of request. Is it possible?

Yes, though you need a wrapper around git. Recent versions of gitolite
have a "motd" message of the day feature.

It sounds nice. Is the wrapper for git client or git server?
Gitolite is -- in this context -- a wrapper on the git server.
It's main purpose is access control; the motd feature is just an extra that just happened to be easy once there was a wrapper anyway.
