kandi X-RAY | githooks Summary

githooks is a Shell library. githooks has no bugs, it has no vulnerabilities, it has a Permissive License and it has low support. You can download it from GitHub.

A simple Shell script to support per-repository Git hooks, checked into the actual repository that uses them. To make this work, it creates hook templates that are installed into the .git/hooks folders automatically on git init and git clone. When one of them executes, it will try to find matching files in the .githooks directory under the project root, and invoke them one-by-one. There's more to the story though, you can read about it under the Templates or global hooks section.

QUESTION

Git pre-merge-commit hook : How do I ignore a file during a merge?

Asked 2021-May-24 at 08:51

Context

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.

Problem

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_me in the staging area and remove it from the staging area (at the end, it's a git reset do_not_merge_me followed by a git checkout do_not_merge_me)
my hook ends properly, do_not_merge_me is 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 :

The 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 --ours commit (in slot 2); and
the --theirs commit (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_FILE overrides 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

Why doesn't `git cherry-pick` (without `--no-commit`) run my post-commit hook?

Asked 2021-May-18 at 20:21

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 merge in some cases, and git commit in 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?

Answered 2021-May-18 at 20:21

Why 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.

pytest githook on Windows with Anaconda

Asked 2020-May-26 at 13:59

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.

Answered 2020-May-26 at 13:59

The 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

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.

Azure DevOps force core.hooksPath after clone a repository

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

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.

git commit: pre-populate commit subject but still prompt for a commit message

Asked 2020-Feb-28 at 00:26

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:
