That indeed seems to do the trick.
I've done a little experiment and saw that when doing git reset the
hook gets called.

However, when switching branches the hook doesn't execute :(

I don't understand if it's intentional, since when I've moved to a new
branch HEAD pointed to another commit id.
The only workaround I see here is using the post-checkout hook in addition.
Hmm, I would have thought that the branch switch would trigger the hooks
because they're updating HEAD. I wonder if that is a bug (or lack of
feature :) ) in the transaction hooks, or something Patrick did
intentionally.
