Questions tagged [githooks]

Git hooks are scripts that are executed upon certain Git events. Events include, but are not limited to, pre- and post-commit and pre- and post-rebase on the client-side, and post-receive-commit on the server-side. No need to use the tag Hooks when using the tag Githooks. Maybe used in combination with tag Webhooks

What is it?

Git hooks are scripts that are executed upon certain Git events. Events include, but are not limited to, pre- and post-commit and pre- and post-rebase on the client-side, and post-receive-commit on the server-side. Hooks can be written in most any scriptable language, including Ruby, Perl, Bash, and shell.

  • Use for other hooking mechanisms in the source management or build process that do not rely on Git hooks.
  • Use for webhooks used on GitHub as an alternative to Git hooks.
