[petsc-dev] make checkclangformat checkbadSource dependencies

[Barry Smith]

  I just found out my script was woefully incomplete. It is probably still wrong even with this change but needs

current_source=$(git diff --staged --name-only | egrep "(\.[chF]'|\.F90|\.hpp|\.cpp|\.cxx|\.cu)" | tr '\n' ' ')

Perhaps git hooks are not understood well enough at the time by the masses (that is, me), or perhaps hooks were presented as THE solution, not as a tool for helping users to get to the solution?  That is, git-hooks as a way to enforce rules on the pushed code versus git hooks used by individuals to make their workflow easier or less bug-prone?
