Hooks used by git |
|
================= |
|
|
|
Hooks are little scripts you can place in `$GIT_DIR/hooks` |
|
directory to trigger action at certain points. When |
|
`git-init` is run, a handful example hooks are copied in the |
|
`hooks` directory of the new repository, but by default they are |
|
all disabled. To enable a hook, make it executable with `chmod +x`. |
|
|
|
This document describes the currently defined hooks. |
|
|
|
applypatch-msg |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-am` script. It takes a single |
|
parameter, the name of the file that holds the proposed commit |
|
log message. Exiting with non-zero status causes |
|
`git-am` to abort before applying the patch. |
|
|
|
The hook is allowed to edit the message file in place, and can |
|
be used to normalize the message into some project standard |
|
format (if the project has one). It can also be used to refuse |
|
the commit after inspecting the message file. |
|
|
|
The default 'applypatch-msg' hook, when enabled, runs the |
|
'commit-msg' hook, if the latter is enabled. |
|
|
|
pre-applypatch |
|
-------------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-am`. It takes no parameter, |
|
and is invoked after the patch is applied, but before a commit |
|
is made. Exiting with non-zero status causes the working tree |
|
after application of the patch not committed. |
|
|
|
It can be used to inspect the current working tree and refuse to |
|
make a commit if it does not pass certain test. |
|
|
|
The default 'pre-applypatch' hook, when enabled, runs the |
|
'pre-commit' hook, if the latter is enabled. |
|
|
|
post-applypatch |
|
--------------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-am`. It takes no parameter, |
|
and is invoked after the patch is applied and a commit is made. |
|
|
|
This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect |
|
the outcome of `git-am`. |
|
|
|
pre-commit |
|
---------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-commit`, and can be bypassed |
|
with `\--no-verify` option. It takes no parameter, and is |
|
invoked before obtaining the proposed commit log message and |
|
making a commit. Exiting with non-zero status from this script |
|
causes the `git-commit` to abort. |
|
|
|
The default 'pre-commit' hook, when enabled, catches introduction |
|
of lines with trailing whitespaces and aborts the commit when |
|
such a line is found. |
|
|
|
commit-msg |
|
---------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-commit`, and can be bypassed |
|
with `\--no-verify` option. It takes a single parameter, the |
|
name of the file that holds the proposed commit log message. |
|
Exiting with non-zero status causes the `git-commit` to |
|
abort. |
|
|
|
The hook is allowed to edit the message file in place, and can |
|
be used to normalize the message into some project standard |
|
format (if the project has one). It can also be used to refuse |
|
the commit after inspecting the message file. |
|
|
|
The default 'commit-msg' hook, when enabled, detects duplicate |
|
"Signed-off-by" lines, and aborts the commit if one is found. |
|
|
|
post-commit |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-commit`. It takes no |
|
parameter, and is invoked after a commit is made. |
|
|
|
This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect |
|
the outcome of `git-commit`. |
|
|
|
post-checkout |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked when a `git-checkout` is run after having updated the |
|
worktree. The hook is given three parameters: the ref of the previous HEAD, |
|
the ref of the new HEAD (which may or may not have changed), and a flag |
|
indicating whether the checkout was a branch checkout (changing branches, |
|
flag=1) or a file checkout (retrieving a file from the index, flag=0). |
|
This hook cannot affect the outcome of `git-checkout`. |
|
|
|
This hook can be used to perform repository validity checks, auto-display |
|
differences from the previous HEAD if different, or set working dir metadata |
|
properties. |
|
|
|
post-merge |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-merge`, which happens when a `git pull` |
|
is done on a local repository. The hook takes a single parameter, a status |
|
flag specifying whether or not the merge being done was a squash merge. |
|
This hook cannot affect the outcome of `git-merge`. |
|
|
|
This hook can be used in conjunction with a corresponding pre-commit hook to |
|
save and restore any form of metadata associated with the working tree |
|
(eg: permissions/ownership, ACLS, etc). See contrib/hooks/setgitperms.perl |
|
for an example of how to do this. |
|
|
|
[[pre-receive]] |
|
pre-receive |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-receive-pack` on the remote repository, |
|
which happens when a `git push` is done on a local repository. |
|
Just before starting to update refs on the remote repository, the |
|
pre-receive hook is invoked. Its exit status determines the success |
|
or failure of the update. |
|
|
|
This hook executes once for the receive operation. It takes no |
|
arguments, but for each ref to be updated it receives on standard |
|
input a line of the format: |
|
|
|
<old-value> SP <new-value> SP <ref-name> LF |
|
|
|
where `<old-value>` is the old object name stored in the ref, |
|
`<new-value>` is the new object name to be stored in the ref and |
|
`<ref-name>` is the full name of the ref. |
|
When creating a new ref, `<old-value>` is 40 `0`. |
|
|
|
If the hook exits with non-zero status, none of the refs will be |
|
updated. If the hook exits with zero, updating of individual refs can |
|
still be prevented by the <<update,'update'>> hook. |
|
|
|
Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to |
|
`git-send-pack` on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages |
|
for the user. |
|
|
|
[[update]] |
|
update |
|
------ |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-receive-pack` on the remote repository, |
|
which happens when a `git push` is done on a local repository. |
|
Just before updating the ref on the remote repository, the update hook |
|
is invoked. Its exit status determines the success or failure of |
|
the ref update. |
|
|
|
The hook executes once for each ref to be updated, and takes |
|
three parameters: |
|
|
|
- the name of the ref being updated, |
|
- the old object name stored in the ref, |
|
- and the new objectname to be stored in the ref. |
|
|
|
A zero exit from the update hook allows the ref to be updated. |
|
Exiting with a non-zero status prevents `git-receive-pack` |
|
from updating that ref. |
|
|
|
This hook can be used to prevent 'forced' update on certain refs by |
|
making sure that the object name is a commit object that is a |
|
descendant of the commit object named by the old object name. |
|
That is, to enforce a "fast forward only" policy. |
|
|
|
It could also be used to log the old..new status. However, it |
|
does not know the entire set of branches, so it would end up |
|
firing one e-mail per ref when used naively, though. The |
|
<<post-receive,'post-receive'>> hook is more suited to that. |
|
|
|
Another use suggested on the mailing list is to use this hook to |
|
implement access control which is finer grained than the one |
|
based on filesystem group. |
|
|
|
Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to |
|
`git-send-pack` on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages |
|
for the user. |
|
|
|
The default 'update' hook, when enabled--and with |
|
`hooks.allowunannotated` config option turned on--prevents |
|
unannotated tags to be pushed. |
|
|
|
[[post-receive]] |
|
post-receive |
|
------------ |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-receive-pack` on the remote repository, |
|
which happens when a `git push` is done on a local repository. |
|
It executes on the remote repository once after all the refs have |
|
been updated. |
|
|
|
This hook executes once for the receive operation. It takes no |
|
arguments, but gets the same information as the |
|
<<pre-receive,'pre-receive'>> |
|
hook does on its standard input. |
|
|
|
This hook does not affect the outcome of `git-receive-pack`, as it |
|
is called after the real work is done. |
|
|
|
This supersedes the <<post-update,'post-update'>> hook in that it gets |
|
both old and new values of all the refs in addition to their |
|
names. |
|
|
|
Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to |
|
`git-send-pack` on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages |
|
for the user. |
|
|
|
The default 'post-receive' hook is empty, but there is |
|
a sample script `post-receive-email` provided in the `contrib/hooks` |
|
directory in git distribution, which implements sending commit |
|
emails. |
|
|
|
[[post-update]] |
|
post-update |
|
----------- |
|
|
|
This hook is invoked by `git-receive-pack` on the remote repository, |
|
which happens when a `git push` is done on a local repository. |
|
It executes on the remote repository once after all the refs have |
|
been updated. |
|
|
|
It takes a variable number of parameters, each of which is the |
|
name of ref that was actually updated. |
|
|
|
This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect |
|
the outcome of `git-receive-pack`. |
|
|
|
The 'post-update' hook can tell what are the heads that were pushed, |
|
but it does not know what their original and updated values are, |
|
so it is a poor place to do log old..new. The |
|
<<post-receive,'post-receive'>> hook does get both original and |
|
updated values of the refs. You might consider it instead if you need |
|
them. |
|
|
|
When enabled, the default 'post-update' hook runs |
|
`git-update-server-info` to keep the information used by dumb |
|
transports (e.g., HTTP) up-to-date. If you are publishing |
|
a git repository that is accessible via HTTP, you should |
|
probably enable this hook. |
|
|
|
Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to |
|
`git-send-pack` on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages |
|
for the user.
