Bikeshedding: Should this be named 'p4-pre-submit'? That way, if
git-p4 ever grows additional hooks, they can all be grouped under the
"p4-" prefix.
An excellent suggestion.
Does the hook receive any arguments? Does it receive anything on its
standard input? Those questions ought to be answered by the
documentation.

Also, how is the hook supposed to determine whether the "submit"
should proceed? How does it know what is being submitted? Perhaps the
documentation could provide some explanation of how the hook should
glean such information (especially if the hook does not itself receive
any input).
Yes, such information in the documentation, or lack thereof, would
mean the distinction between a useful feature and an unusable one.

All other review comments looked quite sensible and an update should
address all of them.

Thanks for being a careful reviewer, as always.
