+# Unsuitable commits are commits that contain a local changelog below a '---'
+# line. The criteria may get extended later.
+#
+# Information about the commits which are being pushed is supplied as lines to
+# the standard input in the form:
+#
+#   <local ref> <local sha1> <remote ref> <remote sha1>
