Please see the changes to pgindent I committed about the same time I got
your email. I don't think we need your new flags, as it's possible (and
always has been) to provide pgindent with a list of files to be
indented. Instead of having pgindent run `git diff --name-only ...` the
git hook can do it and pass the results to pgindent in its command line.
