Subject: [PATCH] build: add make install target for hooksctl
MIME-Version: 1.0
Content-Type: text/plain; charset=UTF-8
Content-Transfer-Encoding: 8bit

Runs `go install ./cmd/hooksctl` so it installs into each developer's
GOBIN (or $GOPATH/bin) — portable across developers (no sudo, no
hardcoded path, cross-platform) rather than copying to /usr/local/bin.
