The apply backend has not traditionally called the post-commit hook,
while the merge backend has. However, this was by accident of
implementation rather than by design. Both backends should have the
same behavior, though it is not clear which one is correct.
while the merge backend has. Both have called the post-checkout hook,
though the merge backend has squelched its output. Further, both
backends only call the post-checkout hook with the starting point
commit of the rebase, not the intermediate commits nor the final
commit. In each case, the calling of these hooks was by accident of
implementation rather than by design (both backends were originally
implemented as shell scripts and happened to invoke other commands
like 'git checkout' or 'git commit' that would call the hooks). Both
backends should have the same behavior, though it is not entirely
clear which, if any, is correct. We will likely make rebase stop
calling either of these hooks in the future.
