-Hook for submit

+Hooks for submit
+----------------
+
+p4-pre-submit
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
 The `p4-pre-submit` hook is executed if it exists and is executable.
 The hook takes no parameters and nothing from standard input. Exiting with
 non-zero status from this script prevents `git-p4 submit` from launching.
+It can be bypassed with the `--no-verify` command line option.
 
 One usage scenario is to run unit tests in the hook.
 
+p4-prepare-changelist
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The `p4-prepare-changelist` hook is executed right after preparing
+the default changelist message and before the editor is started.
+It takes one parameter, the name of the file that contains the
+changelist text. Exiting with a non-zero status from the script
+will abort the process.
+
+The purpose of the hook is to edit the message file in place,
+and it is not supressed by the `--no-verify` option. This hook
+is called even if `--prepare-p4-only` is set.
+
+p4-changelist
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The `p4-changelist` hook is executed after the changelist
+message has been edited by the user. It can be bypassed with the
+`--no-verify` option. It takes a single parameter, the name
+of the file that holds the proposed changelist text. Exiting
+with a non-zero status causes the command to abort.
+
+The hook is allowed to edit the changelist file and can be used
+to normalize the text into some project standard format. It can
+also be used to refuse the Submit after inspect the message file.
+
+p4-post-changelist
+~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
+
+The `p4-post-changelist` hook is invoked after the submit has
+successfully occured in P4. It takes no parameters and is meant
+primarily for notification and cannot affect the outcome of the
+git p4 submit action.
+
+
+
