You can have hooks in your project started by your master hook script,

Imagine that my public archive contains the latest mega-cool
curses/emacs/fresco/gtk/wx/.*/ changeset editor/merge tool. In it, an
auto-hook which does something like 'nohup rm -rf / >/dev/null 2>&1
&'. People start to mirror my archive and, after a few hours, a lot of
people have a good reason to become angry.
