+# This simple script checks for commits beginning with: scripted-diff:
+# If found, looks for a script between the lines -BEGIN VERIFY SCRIPT- and
+# -END VERIFY SCRIPT-. If no ending is found, it reads until the end of the
+# commit message.
+
+# The resulting script should exactly transform the previous commit into the current
+# one. Any remaining diff signals an error.
