kandi X-RAY | Githooks Summary
A platform-independend hooks manager written in Go to support shared hook repositories and per-repository Git hooks, checked into the working repository. This implementation is the Go port and successor of the original impementation (see Migration). To make this work, the installer creates run-wrappers for Githooks that are installed into the .git/hooks folders automatically on git init and git clone. There's more to the story though. When one of the Githooks run-wrappers executes, Githooks starts up and tries to find matching hooks in the .githooks directory under the project root, and invoke them one-by-one. Also it searches for hooks in configured shared hook repositories.

QUESTION
I'm working in a complex git flow where some specific branches get specific submodules and some specific config files that require to be committed, but must not be merged.
These are few files but it is too dangerous to let anyone merge branches without being careful not to merge those.
In order to make it automatic, I worked on pre-merge-commit hooks, both at server and local side.
In case of conflict, I make use of .gitattributes and git/config files to resolve the conflict with a custom merge driver. It works like a charm.
However, I'm struggling to make it work when there is no conflict. In this case, the merge is carried out successfully and my pre-merge-hook is triggered. It does its magic and then exit successfully. Though, for some reason, git re-do some merging stuff after the hook which make it useless. Here is the behavior I'm witnessing :
before the merge
I got two branches, let's say A_current and B_incoming.
Both got a file I don't want to be merged. This file is called do_not_merge_me. At some point, do_not_merge_me content changed in B_incoming. Let's say it went from contentA to contentB
during the merge
What I see when I'm merging B_incoming into A_current is :
- The merge goes on, and adds files in the staged area, including
do_not_merge_me. - The merge succeed, so it triggers my hook
- my hook finds
do_not_merge_mein the staging area and remove it from the staging area (at the end, it's agit reset do_not_merge_mefollowed by agit checkout do_not_merge_me) - my hook ends properly,
do_not_merge_meis not in the staging area anymore - Git does some dark magic : it redo a merge and re-stage
do_not_merge_me - Git validate the commit, I see this added in my console :
ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-19 at 01:08The short answer is that you can't.
When git merge runs, it reads three commits into Git's index. These three commits are:
- the merge base (in slot 1);
- the
--ourscommit (in slot 2); and - the
--theirscommit (in slot 3).
These are stored in the usual index format: a path name including slashes, a mode (100644 or 100755 for regular files, 120000 for symbolic links, and 160000 for gitlinks), and a hash ID.
The first part of the merge then compares the modes to make sure those are suitable (if not, this is a merge conflict). Assuming normal files and suitable modes here, it goes on to compare the hash IDs:
- all three equal? file is successfully merged, drop to slot 0, erase slots 1-3
- two equal? take the third one: drop to slot 0, erase slots 1-3
- all three unequal? leave for later, for the real merge code.
There are a few more special cases (e.g., file exists in merge base and theirs/ours, but deleted in ours/theirs) that are also handled directly in the index, I think, but your particular case—file modified in theirs, but identical in ours and base—hits the middle "two equal? take third" case: the file is the same in your commit and the merge base, so Git just assumes that their updated file is the correct result.
When Git does this in the early pass, it never runs your merge driver at all. The file goes to staging slot zero—"ready to be committed"—rather than conflicted and you never get a chance to do anything. Your pre-merge-commit will get invoked, but the copy of the file in the index will be the one from the theirs commit.
We now get into the seriously dark magic part: "the index" assumes that there's a single index (.git/index) that is always used. This isn't really the case: it's mostly true, but:
$GIT_INDEX_FILEoverrides the name;- added work-trees (from
git worktree add) have their own index; and - various Git commands read the index into memory and then work with that.
In this case, it looks like git merge has the index in-memory and just uses it as is to make the new commit. Your git add replaces the stage-zero copy in the .git/index file, but git merge does not notice this, and goes on to produce the new merge commit using the incoming copy that was there before it even ran your pre-merge-commit hook.
Assuming this is all true—and it may change from one Git version to another, depending on when and whether Git does any re-reading of the index—this would answer your question #1, and render the answer to #2 "no" and the answer to #3 be "you're trying to do something outside the range of what Git handles".
What you want to do is not inherently unreasonable, but Git just doesn't support it.
QUESTION
How can I trigger a post-commit hook with the command git cherry-pick ?
What I've tried:
- I tried the command
git commit -m '...'. It triggered the post-commit hook normally. - In the githooks document, there are no hooks related to cherry-pick.
- After viewing the source code of Git, I found it uses
git mergein some cases, andgit commitin others. But I'm not sure when to use which command.
My questions are:
- Why don't post-commit hooks work when I use
git cherry-pick? - Is there a hook that cherry-pick will run?
ANSWER
Answered 2021-May-18 at 20:21Why don't post-commit hooks work when I use
git cherry-pick?
The post-commit hook is run after creating a commit.
However, cherry-pick does not really create a new commit with new information (from the user perspective) but copies another commit.
Is there a hook that cherry-pick will run?
Yes, the prepare-commit-msg should be run before commit is cherry-picked, even though the commit-msg hook is not executed.

QUESTION
I have the following setup:
- Windows 10
- python installed via Anaconda
- Virtual environment setup via Anaconda for running and testing my project with pytest
- git version control via MINGW
Now I'd like to set a githook that runs all my tests before I push. I have the following problem: I can't activate my virtual environment within the githook.
I tried to activate my anaconda env in the githook script but I can't get it to work. activate as command is not available and calling the whole path ../Anaconda3/Scripts/activate.bat does nothing.
I also tried to use python-githooks to configure the hook for me, but this doesn't seem to work in Windows (it can't read PWD from the environment...)
I'm gratefull for any suggestions.
...ANSWER
Answered 2020-May-26 at 13:59The solution was to create a .bat-File at the root of the git repository, with:
call C:\...\Anaconda3\Scripts\activate.bat
call activate fs_env
pytest
and to call this file within the pre-push file in .git/hooks with:
./runtests.bat

ANSWER
Answered 2020-Mar-30 at 18:56The problem was that I was trying to make this work on a pre-existing project, with an existing .git directory. I thought changing the config with the --global flag would just work, but apparently the config inside the .git directory of the project did not change, and the old hookspath was still there. When I changed it, the script started working.
QUESTION
I try to implement client side git hooks to a azure devops git repository.
I added a .githooks directory to the root and implement a pre-commit hook. I commit and push everything to the repository.
But of curse the hook is only active if I execute
git config core.hooksPath .githooks
after cloning the repository.
The question is here: is there a possiblity to set the git config core.hooksPath per default to .githooks otherwise it will be impossible to force a user to use a hook. :/

Sorry but I'm afraid it's impossible for now, as I know Azure Devops doesn't support such behavior. I totally understand your needs but what you want is not available in either Azure Devops Git Repos or Github Repos.
Currently you have to make your members run the git config core.hooksPath .githooks command manually to enable your custom hooks. We can't avoid a manual step here cause git hooks is designed to trigger actions at certain points per user instead of per team.

QUESTION
Let's say I'm working on a branch and I run git commit. I am then taken to the commit message prompt where I may enter a commit subject and message. What I'm looking for is a way to have the commit subject pre-populated while still being able to write the commit message manually.
This question is distinct from this one in that I want the commit subject to be populated but still want to be prompted to enter a commit message, i.e. running git commit -a in git bash results in something like:
Edit: improper usage of githooks was preventing the accepted answer from the linked question from working. So, the questions are not distinct and this can be marked as a duplicate.
I'm currently trying to pre-populate the commit subject with a branch name, but in the future I may want that text to be something else. As such, a general solution (not specifically for branch names) would be preferred.

Install Githooks
Find out where the Git templates directory is. From the $GIT_TEMPLATE_DIR environment variable. With the git config --get init.templateDir command. Checking the default /usr/share/git-core/templates folder. Search on the filesystem for matching directories. Offer to set up a new one, and make it init.templateDir.
Write all chosen Githooks run-wrappers into the choosen directory: either init.templateDir or core.hooksPath depending on the install mode --use-core-hooks-path.
Offer to enable automatic update checks.
Offer to find existing Git repositories on the filesystem (disable with --skip-install-into-existing) Install run-wrappers into them (.git/hooks). Offer to add an intro README in their .githooks folder.
Install/update run-wrappers into all registered repositories: Repositories using Githooks get registered in the install folders registered.yaml file on their first hook invocation.
Offer to set up shared hook repositories.
To install Githooks on your system, simply execute cli installer. It will guide you through the installation process. Check the cli installer --help for available options. Some of them are described below:. Its adviced to only install Githooks for a selection of the supported hooks by using --maintained-hooks as. This will only support the mentioned hooks in the template directory (e.g. for new clones). You can still overwrite selectively for a repository by installing another set of hooks. Missing Git LFS hooks will always be placed if necessary.
Lastly, you have the option to install the templates to a centralized location (core.hooksPath). You can read more about the difference between this option and the default one below. For this, run the command below.
If you want to install from another Git repository (e.g. from your own or your companies fork), you can specify the repository clone url as well as the branch name (default: main) when installing with:. The installer always maintains a Githooks clone inside <installDir>/release for its automatic update logic. The specified custom clone URL and branch will then be used for further updates in the above example (see update machanics). Because the installer always downloads the latest release (here from another URL/branch), it needs deploy settings to know where to get the binaries from. Either your fork has setup these settings in their Githooks release (you hopefully downloaded) already or you can specify them by using --deploy-api <type> or the full settings file --deploy-settings <file>. The <type> can either be gitea ( or github which is not needed since it can be auto-detected from the URL) and it will automatically download and verify the binaries over the implemented API. Credentials will be collected over git credential to access the API. [@todo].
You can use this hook manager also without a global installation. For that you can clone this repository anywhere (e.g. <repoPath>) and build the executables with Go by running githooks/scripts/build.sh --prod. You can then use the hooks by setting core.hooksPath (in any suitable Git config) to the checked in run-wrappers in <repoPath>/hooks like so:.
You can also run the installation in non-interactive mode with the command below. This will determine an appropriate template directory (detect and use the existing one, or use the one passed by --template-dir, or use a default one), install the hooks automatically into this directory, and enable periodic update checks.
On a server infrastructure where only bare repositories are maintained, it is best to maintain only server hooks. This can be achieved by installing with:.
