+# Refuses AI attribution in commit messages.
+#
+# This repo is public, so history is the first thing an outside contributor
+# sees. Attribution cannot be removed retroactively without rewriting every
+# commit after it, and clones have already copied it.
+#
+# Enable after cloning:
+#
+#     git config core.hooksPath .githooks
+#     chmod +x .githooks/commit-msg
+#
+# The Gitea web API cannot set the executable bit, so the chmod is required
+# on first clone even though the file is committed.
