Should documentation be part of githooks or git-svn man page ?
I vote for the latest, in order to avoid
In any case, what do you think of the following help message ?

+HOOKS
+-----
+
+The 'pre-svn-dcommit' hook is called by 'git svn dcommit' and can be 
used to
+prevent some diff to be committed to a SVN repository. It may typically be
+used to filter some intermediate patches, which were committed into git but
+must not find their way to the SVN repository.
+
+If the hook exists with a non zero-status, 'git svn dcommit' will abort.
+
+

As for the 'whitespace damage", I do not understand what you mean.
The \n look mandatory to me.
You may look at 'info perlfunc' for the original code snippet (see 
'system' function).
