What is “update”?
You want 'post-checkout' for this. The 'update' and 'post-update' aren't useful here, they are for the server-side of git push (see the 'githooks' manpage). > And now that we discovered that this is possible: I would like to have the > pre-commit hook globally, that would fit my workflow nicely.

My home directory is unfortunately not a git repository. ;) You can use ~/.gitconfig to change core.hooksPath to a central directory, but then per-repository hooks will no longer work (search hooksPath in the 'git-config' manpage). That's a shame, I hoped there would be a way to have both global and per-repo hooks... -- Nicolás
