I agree that you are trying to do a good thing, but does this
implementation work in practice?  If somebody breaks send-pack in such a
way that this push succeeds, doesn't the &&-chain will prevent your
"when-finished" hook to be registered to begin with?  IOW, wouldn't you
want to have when-finished as _early_ as possible, before any test that
might fail to help us identify a new breakage?

The same comment applies to other two hunks in the patch.
