True, but there are ways of figuring out which branch you're on, using
the arguments passed to the hook.

The rebase hook (which is where this discussion started) gets the
branches passed to "git rebase" as arguments. Figuring out if either
of those branches are actually under stgit control shouldn't be overly
tricky for one so familiar with stgit as yourself.
