git-hooks – git hooks manager

git-hooks is currently at the stage of managing client-side hooks. It will support server-side hooks future.

git-hooks tries to reduce hook copies by using symbolic links to manage them.

Take pre-commit hook as an example. When git triggers pre-commit, git-hooks routes the execution to:

  • githooks directory under the repo directory,
  • ~/.githooks directory under home directory, and
  • the directory configured by git config –system hooks.global.

These three directories are called project scope, user scope, and global scope.

git-hooks is a fork of icefox/git-hooks
