-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.
-
-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`.
-
-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.
