Because I wanted to be able to do things like this:

git config -add hooks.post-receive.hook \
  "sh hooks/buildbot 192.168.99.9:9989"
git config -add hooks.post-receive.hook \
  "sh hooks/buildbot 192.168.99.9:9988"

So, the thing I initially wanted to solve was "multiple instances" of 
the same hook.

Then when I found this thread I saw that the richer meta information 
needed to implement multiple hooks with sane semantics could be done 
with the config values.
