You need to translate all refs to your remote-tracking branches inside
origin (eg. refs/remotes/origin/users/hjl/pr17709), or run that command
inside a bare mirror. Doing that results in no error, execpt that the
first rev does not exist for me, but that is probably the rev you are
about to push.

The hook is running directly inside the bare repository, there is no
remote.
