title: Git hooks, post-receive loop through commit
body: <p>Using git hooks on the server side, is it possible to loop through the new commit messages that were sent from the client to the server everytime someone pushes to the remote repository?</p>
  
  <p>I need to extract information from each message,</p>
  
  <p>hash,date,commit author,branch</p>
  
  <p>I cant find any good documentation on git hooks figure it out.
  I've read through
