A Use For Git's Post-Commit Hook

Posted by sam 12/01/2008 at 06:47AM

I love git and I love to be lazy, so lately I’ve been playing with git hooks.

Git’s default pre-commit hook is really handy, but today I’m in more of a post-commit kind of mood.  Like all git’s hooks it comes with an example script.

This one isn’t particularly useful.  It evaluates Nothing and returns a successful exit code.  Big deal.

Git’s default post-commit hook.

#!/bin/sh
#
# An example hook script that is called after a successful
# commit is made.
#
# To enable this hook, make this file executable.

: Nothing
