[issue2523] ui.verbose not set for precommit hook?

[Marcus Lindblom]

New submission from Marcus Lindblom <macke at yar.nu>:

Hi,

I'm writing a small extension to check for tabs/trailing whitespace, and 
started out using the pre-commit hook. As per  
http://mercurial.selenic.com/wiki/WritingExtensions#Wrap_up:_what_belongs_wh
ere.3F these should be configured in uisetup().

Now, the ui.verbose flag isn't set when my hook is called, so any ui.note is 
not written (even with --verbose) and the ui.verbose is never set.

I changed it to a pretxncommit hook (which needed to be configured in 
reposetup instead) and then it worked as expected.

I'm not sure if the wiki or mercurial itself is to blame, though, hence I 
report it here.
