Description
I don't know what's possible with hooks, but hopefully this is. We received a complaint about commits pinging people because they contain a mention to the user on GitHub. Obviously, it is unacceptable to ping random people whenever we update packages. To help ensure this doesn't happen in the future, it would be great if there was a way to detect that a commit might mention a user, and reject it before it hits GitHub.
