[RFC PATCH v2 0/2] configuration-based hook management (was: [TOPIC 2/17] Hooks in the future)

[Date Prev][Date Next][Thread Prev][Thread Next][Date Index][Thread Index]

 



Not much to look at compared to the original RFC I sent some months ago.
This implements Peff's suggestion of using the "hookcmd" section as a
layer of indirection. The scope is a little smaller than the original
RFC as it doesn't have a way to remove hooks from downstream (yet), and
ordering numbers are dropped (for now).

One thing that's missing, as evidenced by the TODO, is a way to handle
arbitrary options given within a "hookcmd" unit. I think this can be
achieved with a callback, since it seems plausible that "pre-receive"
might want a different set of options than "post-commit" or so on. To
me, it sounds achievable with a callback; I imagine a follow-on teaching
git-hook how to remove a hook with something like "hookcmd.foo.skip =
true" will give an OK indication of how that might look.

Overall though, I think this is simpler than the first version of the
RFC because I was reminded by wiser folks than I to "keep it simple,
stupid." ;)

I think it's feasible that with these couple patches applied, someone
who wanted to jump in early could replace their
.git/hook/whatever-hookname with some boilerplate like

  xargs -n 1 'sh -c' <<<"$(git hook --list whatever-hookname)"

and give it a shot. Untested snippet. :)
