It's beginning to sound like one.

So maybe something happened to /usr/share/git-core/templates/hooks
directory (or wherever it is on OS X) on Sam's machine.  What do you
(Sam) see there?

Or maybe Sam has an alias that calls "git init" with --template
option, pointing it to  a non-standard place.  (What does
"git config -l" display?)

Or maybe GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR is set in the environment on Sam's machine.

Or something similar.
