make the sample pre-commit hook script reject names with newlines, too

meyering · gitster · commit c14daa4845ff · 2011-10-26T14:31:14.000-07:00
The sample pre-commit hook script would fail to reject a file name like
"a\nb" because of the way newlines are handled in "$(...)".  Adjust the
test to count filtered bytes and require there be 0.  Also print all
diagnostics to standard error, not stdout, so they will actually be seen.
