I use the below, which allows me to specify what to run on refresh time.

The script I have it use looks like:

$ cat /usr/local/bin/fix-patch.sh
TMP=`tempfile -d /tmp`
awk -f /usr/local/bin/fix-patch.awk $1 > $TMP
if [ -x ./scripts/checkpatch.pl ]; then
        ./scripts/checkpatch.pl $TMP
fi
mv $TMP $1


and fix-patch.awk does things like sanitize mail headers and add
Signed-off-by, lines.
