The hook is called with GIT_INDEX_FILE set to the appropriate index file, so you could "git-diff-index --cached --name-only HEAD" to obtain the list of files being committed, sanitize the working tree files and update-index them again before returning true from the hook. This is a silly example to standardize on uppercase. git-diff-index --cached --name-only HEAD | xargs sh -c ' while case "$#" in 0) break ;; esac do perl -p -i -e "\$_ = uc(\$_)" "$1" git-update-index "$1" shift done ' dummy exit 0 - : send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
