+ NAME
+ ----
+ githooks - Hooks used by git
+
+ SYNOPSIS
+ --------
+ $GIT_DIR/hooks/*
+
+
+ DESCRIPTION
+ -----------
+
+ Hooks are little scripts you can place in `$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.
+
+ If it exits with non-zero status, then the working tree will not be
+ committed after applying the patch.
+
+ 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.
+
+ All the `git-commit` hooks are invoked with the environment
+ variable `GIT_EDITOR=:` if the command will not bring up an editor
+ to modify the commit message.
+
+ prepare-commit-msg
+ ------------------
+
+ This hook is invoked by `git-commit` right after preparing the
+ default log message, and before the editor is started.
+
+ It takes one to three parameters. The first is the name of the file
+ that the commit log message. The second is the source of the commit
+ message, and can be: `message` (if a `\-m` or `\-F` option was
+ given); `template` (if a `\-t` option was given or the
+ configuration option `commit.template` is set); `merge` (if the
+ commit is a merge or a `.git/MERGE_MSG` file exists); `squash`
+ (if a `.git/SQUASH_MSG` file exists); or `commit`, followed by
+ a commit SHA1 (if a `\-c`, `\-C` or `\--amend` option was given).
+
+ If the exit status is non-zero, `git-commit` will abort.
+
+ The purpose of the hook is to edit the message file in place, and
+ it is not suppressed by the `\--no-verify` option. A non-zero exit
+ means a failure of the hook and aborts the commit. It should not
+ be used as replacement for pre-commit hook.
+
+ The sample `prepare-commit-msg` hook that comes with git comments
+ out the `Conflicts:` part of a merge's commit message.
+
+ 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` and is not executed,
++if the merge failed due to conflicts.
+
+ 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.
+
+ pre-auto-gc
+ -----------
+
+ This hook is invoked by `git-gc --auto`. It takes no parameter, and
+ exiting with non-zero status from this script causes the `git-gc --auto`
+ to abort.
