+post-rewrite
+~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+This hook is invoked by commands that rewrite commits (`git commit
+--amend`, 'git-rebase'; currently 'git-filter-branch' does 'not' call
+it!). Its first argument denotes the command it was invoked by:
+currently one of `amend` or `rebase`. Further command-dependent
+arguments may be passed in the future.
+
+The hook receives a list of the rewritten commits on stdin, in the
+format
+
+ <old-sha1> SP <new-sha1> [ SP <extra-info> ] LF
+
+The 'extra-info' is again command-dependent. If it is empty, the
+preceding SP is also omitted. Currently, no commands pass any
+'extra-info'.
+
+The hook always runs after the automatic note copying (see
+"notes.rewrite.<command>" in linkgit:git-config.txt) has happened, and
+thus has access to these notes.
+
+The following command-specific comments apply:
+
+rebase::
+ For the 'squash' and 'fixup' operation, all commits that were
+ squashed are listed as being rewritten to the squashed commit.
+ This means that there will be several lines sharing the same
+ 'new-sha1'.
++
+The commits are guaranteed to be listed in the order that they were
+processed by rebase.
