 ## Git Hooks ##
 
-[Git Hooks](http://www.kernel.org/pub/software/scm/git/docs/githooks.html)
+Hooks are little scripts you can place in $GIT_DIR/hooks directory to trigger
+action at certain points. When git-init is run, a handful example hooks are 
+copied in the hooks directory of the new repository, but by default they are 
+all disabled. To enable a hook, rename it by removing its .sample suffix.
 
-### Server Side Hooks ###
 
-#### Post Receive ####
+### applypatch-msg ###
 
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/applypatch-msg
+    
+This hook is invoked by git-am script. It takes a single parameter, the name 
+of the file that holds the proposed commit log message. Exiting with non-zero
+status causes git-am to abort before applying the patch.
 
-	GIT_DIR/hooks/post-receive
+The hook is allowed to edit the message file in place, and can be used to 
+normalize the message into some project standard format (if the project has one).
+It can also be used to refuse the commit after inspecting the message file.
+The default applypatch-msg hook, when enabled, runs the commit-msg hook, if the
+latter is enabled.
 
-If you wrote it in Ruby, you might get the args this way:
 
-	ruby
-	rev_old, rev_new, ref = STDIN.read.split(&quot; &quot;)
+### pre-applypatch ###
 
-Or in a bash script, something like this would work:
-	
-	#!/bin/sh
-	# &lt;oldrev&gt; &lt;newrev&gt; &lt;refname&gt;
-	# update a blame tree
-	while read oldrev newrev ref
-	do
-		echo &quot;STARTING [$oldrev $newrev $ref]&quot;
-		for path in `git diff-tree -r $oldrev..$newrev | awk '{print $6}'`
-		do
-		  echo &quot;git update-ref refs/blametree/$ref/$path $newrev&quot;
-		  `git update-ref refs/blametree/$ref/$path $newrev`
-		done
-	done

+    GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-applypatch
+
+This hook is invoked by git-am. It takes no parameter, and is invoked after the
+patch is applied, but before a commit is made.
+If it exits with non-zero status, then the working tree will not be committed
+after applying the patch.
+
+It can be used to inspect the current working tree and refuse to make a commit 
+if it does not pass certain test.
+The default pre-applypatch hook, when enabled, runs the pre-commit hook, if the
+latter is enabled.
+
+
+### post-applypatch ###
 
-### Client Side Hooks ###
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-applypatch
+    
+This hook is invoked by 'git-am'.  It takes no parameter,
+and is invoked after the patch is applied and a commit is made.
 
+This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect
+the outcome of 'git-am'.
 
-#### Pre Commit ####

- 	GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-commit
+This hook is invoked by 'git-commit', and can be bypassed
+with `\--no-verify` option.  It takes no parameter, and is
+invoked before obtaining the proposed commit log message and
+making a commit.  Exiting with non-zero status from this script
+causes the 'git-commit' to abort.
+
+The default 'pre-commit' hook, when enabled, catches introduction
+of lines with trailing whitespaces and aborts the commit when
+such a line is found.
+
+All the 'git-commit' hooks are invoked with the environment
+variable `GIT_EDITOR=:` if the command will not bring up an editor
+to modify the commit message.

+### prepare-commit-msg ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/prepare-commit-msg
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-commit' right after preparing the
+default log message, and before the editor is started.
+
+It takes one to three parameters.  The first is the name of the file
+that the commit log message.  The second is the source of the commit
+message, and can be: `message` (if a `-m` or `-F` option was
+given); `template` (if a `-t` option was given or the
+configuration option `commit.template` is set); `merge` (if the
+commit is a merge or a `.git/MERGE_MSG` file exists); `squash`
+(if a `.git/SQUASH_MSG` file exists); or `commit`, followed by
+a commit SHA1 (if a `-c`, `-C` or `\--amend` option was given).
+
+If the exit status is non-zero, 'git-commit' will abort.
+
+The purpose of the hook is to edit the message file in place, and
+it is not suppressed by the `\--no-verify` option.  A non-zero exit
+means a failure of the hook and aborts the commit.  It should not
+be used as replacement for pre-commit hook.
+
+The sample `prepare-commit-msg` hook that comes with git comments
+out the `Conflicts:` part of a merge's commit message.
+
+
+### commit-msg ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/commit-msg
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-commit', and can be bypassed
+with `\--no-verify` option.  It takes a single parameter, the
+name of the file that holds the proposed commit log message.
+Exiting with non-zero status causes the 'git-commit' to
+abort.
+
+The hook is allowed to edit the message file in place, and can
+be used to normalize the message into some project standard
+format (if the project has one). It can also be used to refuse
+the commit after inspecting the message file.
+
+The default 'commit-msg' hook, when enabled, detects duplicate
+&quot;Signed-off-by&quot; lines, and aborts the commit if one is found.
+
+
+### post-commit ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-commit
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-commit'.  It takes no
+parameter, and is invoked after a commit is made.
+
+This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect
+the outcome of 'git-commit'.
+
+
+### pre-rebase ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-rebase
+
+This hook is called by 'git-rebase' and can be used to prevent a branch
+from getting rebased.
+
+
+### post-checkout ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-checkout
+
+This hook is invoked when a 'git-checkout' is run after having updated the
+worktree.  The hook is given three parameters: the ref of the previous HEAD,
+the ref of the new HEAD (which may or may not have changed), and a flag
+indicating whether the checkout was a branch checkout (changing branches,
+flag=1) or a file checkout (retrieving a file from the index, flag=0).
+This hook cannot affect the outcome of 'git-checkout'.
+
+This hook can be used to perform repository validity checks, auto-display
+differences from the previous HEAD if different, or set working dir metadata
+properties.
+
+
+### post-merge ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-merge
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-merge', which happens when a 'git-pull'
+is done on a local repository.  The hook takes a single parameter, a status
+flag specifying whether or not the merge being done was a squash merge.
+This hook cannot affect the outcome of 'git-merge' and is not executed,
+if the merge failed due to conflicts.
+
+This hook can be used in conjunction with a corresponding pre-commit hook to
+save and restore any form of metadata associated with the working tree
+(eg: permissions/ownership, ACLS, etc).  See contrib/hooks/setgitperms.perl
+for an example of how to do this.
+
+
+### pre-receive ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-receive
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-receive-pack' on the remote repository,
+which happens when a 'git-push' is done on a local repository.
+Just before starting to update refs on the remote repository, the
+pre-receive hook is invoked.  Its exit status determines the success
+or failure of the update.
+
+This hook executes once for the receive operation. It takes no
+arguments, but for each ref to be updated it receives on standard
+input a line of the format:
+
+  &lt;old-value&gt; SP &lt;new-value&gt; SP &lt;ref-name&gt; LF
+
+where `&lt;old-value&gt;` is the old object name stored in the ref,
+`&lt;new-value&gt;` is the new object name to be stored in the ref and
+`&lt;ref-name&gt;` is the full name of the ref.
+When creating a new ref, `&lt;old-value&gt;` is 40 `0`.
+
+If the hook exits with non-zero status, none of the refs will be
+updated. If the hook exits with zero, updating of individual refs can
+still be prevented by the &lt;&lt;update,'update'&gt;&gt; hook.
+
+Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to
+'git-send-pack' on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages
+for the user.
+
+If you wrote it in Ruby, you might get the args this way:
+
+	ruby
+	rev_old, rev_new, ref = STDIN.read.split(&quot; &quot;)
+
+Or in a bash script, something like this would work:
+	
+	#!/bin/sh
+	# &lt;oldrev&gt; &lt;newrev&gt; &lt;refname&gt;
+	# update a blame tree
+	while read oldrev newrev ref
+	do
+		echo &quot;STARTING [$oldrev $newrev $ref]&quot;
+		for path in `git diff-tree -r $oldrev..$newrev | awk '{print $6}'`
+		do
+		  echo &quot;git update-ref refs/blametree/$ref/$path $newrev&quot;
+		  `git update-ref refs/blametree/$ref/$path $newrev`
+		done
+	done
+
+    
+### update ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/update
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-receive-pack' on the remote repository,
+which happens when a 'git-push' is done on a local repository.
+Just before updating the ref on the remote repository, the update hook
+is invoked.  Its exit status determines the success or failure of
+the ref update.
+
+The hook executes once for each ref to be updated, and takes
+three parameters:
+
+ - the name of the ref being updated,
+ - the old object name stored in the ref,
+ - and the new objectname to be stored in the ref.
+
+A zero exit from the update hook allows the ref to be updated.
+Exiting with a non-zero status prevents 'git-receive-pack'
+from updating that ref.
+
+This hook can be used to prevent 'forced' update on certain refs by
+making sure that the object name is a commit object that is a
+descendant of the commit object named by the old object name.
+That is, to enforce a &quot;fast forward only&quot; policy.
+
+It could also be used to log the old..new status.  However, it
+does not know the entire set of branches, so it would end up
+firing one e-mail per ref when used naively, though.  The
+&lt;&lt;post-receive,'post-receive'&gt;&gt; hook is more suited to that.
+
+Another use suggested on the mailing list is to use this hook to
+implement access control which is finer grained than the one
+based on filesystem group.
+
+Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to
+'git-send-pack' on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages
+for the user.
+
+The default 'update' hook, when enabled--and with
+`hooks.allowunannotated` config option turned on--prevents
+unannotated tags to be pushed.
+
+
+### post-receive ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-receive
+    
+This hook is invoked by 'git-receive-pack' on the remote repository,
+which happens when a 'git-push' is done on a local repository.
+It executes on the remote repository once after all the refs have
+been updated.
+
+This hook executes once for the receive operation.  It takes no
+arguments, but gets the same information as the
+&lt;&lt;pre-receive,'pre-receive'&gt;&gt;
+hook does on its standard input.
+
+This hook does not affect the outcome of 'git-receive-pack', as it
+is called after the real work is done.
+
+This supersedes the &lt;&lt;post-update,'post-update'&gt;&gt; hook in that it gets
+both old and new values of all the refs in addition to their
+names.
+
+Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to
+'git-send-pack' on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages
+for the user.
+
+The default 'post-receive' hook is empty, but there is
+a sample script `post-receive-email` provided in the `contrib/hooks`
+directory in git distribution, which implements sending commit
+emails.
+
+
+### post-update ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/post-update
+    
+This hook is invoked by 'git-receive-pack' on the remote repository,
+which happens when a 'git-push' is done on a local repository.
+It executes on the remote repository once after all the refs have
+been updated.
+
+It takes a variable number of parameters, each of which is the
+name of ref that was actually updated.
+
+This hook is meant primarily for notification, and cannot affect
+the outcome of 'git-receive-pack'.
+
+The 'post-update' hook can tell what are the heads that were pushed,
+but it does not know what their original and updated values are,
+so it is a poor place to do log old..new. The
+&lt;&lt;post-receive,'post-receive'&gt;&gt; hook does get both original and
+updated values of the refs. You might consider it instead if you need
+them.
+
+When enabled, the default 'post-update' hook runs
+'git-update-server-info' to keep the information used by dumb
+transports (e.g., HTTP) up-to-date.  If you are publishing
+a git repository that is accessible via HTTP, you should
+probably enable this hook.
+
+Both standard output and standard error output are forwarded to
+'git-send-pack' on the other end, so you can simply `echo` messages
+for the user.
+
+
+### pre-auto-gc ###
+
+    GIT_DIR/hooks/pre-auto-gc
+
+This hook is invoked by 'git-gc --auto'. It takes no parameter, and
+exiting with non-zero status from this script causes the 'git-gc --auto'
+to abort.
+
