Pre receive hook not working in all repositories

Question

I'm running the Rally COnnector in our Atlassian Stash v3.0.1 server and only in newly created repositories is the Pre Receive Hook for Push validation working.  I've enabled the hook the same way in the repos where it works and the ones where it doesn't.

Is there something that the older (pre-plugin install) repositories could be missing?

Okay, well I "fixed" my issue by installing the 'External Hooks' plugin and writing my own pre-receive hook to validate the existence of RALLY artifacts.

I'm going to assume that the reason the 'Rally Connector' plugin isn't working for the older repositories is that it checks ALL PREVIOUS commit messages for a commit, instead of just the messages that are relevant for the commit for RALLY artifacts, and so it isn't enabled because there are already previous commits that don't pass validation.
