I do not think that is a smart thing to do in general, as there is no
guarantee that the hook is in fact a shell script (and not a binary, or
some other scripting language). But if you want do a one-off patch for
yourself, knowing that you will only use shell scripts, it is probably
something like:

diff --git a/run-command.c b/run-command.c
index a476999..ccfccf0 100644
