+# Purpose
+#
+# This script does quick sanity checks before commiting:
+#   - check that generated files are up-to-date.
+#
+# It is meant to be called as a git pre-commit hook, see README.md.
+#
+# From the git sample pre-commit hook:
+#   Called by "git commit" with no arguments.  The hook should
+#   exit with non-zero status after issuing an appropriate message if
+#   it wants to stop the commit.
