Well, it's oh so close!  If we make changes that don't pass the syntax
check and try to push them the hook rejects the changes.  If we then
make a change that will pass the syntax check, leave the others broken,
and push, 'git diff-tree' doesn't list the previously rejected files so
the hook accepts the push.  Is there any way to get 'git diff-tree' to
list all of the files?

Here's 'git diff-tree' output from our first push attempt:

And here's the output from the second push attempt:

Thanks again!
