git-global-to-local-hooks

This repository allows you to use global hooks without overriding local ones.

How?

1. It uses the classic global hooks strategy by setting a global git configuration to change the place git will look for hooks.
2. It installs forwarding global hooks that will by default just trigger project local hooks considering the project you run a git command on (using git rev-parse).
3. It installs a forwarding global hook for all existing kind of hooks: see the documentation:
   • applypatch-msg
   • commit-msg
   • fsmonitor-watchman
   • post-update
   • pre-applypatch
   • pre-commit
   • pre-merge-commit
   • pre-push
   • pre-rebase
   • pre-receive
   • prepare-commit-msg
   • push-to-checkout
   • run-local-hook
   • update
4. In conclusion, to install this should not affect the way your current hooks are triggered. You can then update any default forwarding global hook to have a global hook running on all your projects, without overriding local ones that will be called afterward.

Installation

The global hooks will be installed in $HOME/.git-global.hooks.
