Is there some API to manipulate Git hooks?

[tisonkun]

I'm going to use gix- libs to manage my Git hooks. Is there any API existing?

For example, I'd like to add/set a pre-push hook with customized payload, and the API should automatically find the hook path and create or override the file.

Unfortunately, there is no gix-hook crate yet, which is planned for quite a while already as substitute for git2-hooks.

Besides that, what do you mean with 'create or override the file'? Does it mean you'd like it to also create hooks? Because it definitely wouldn't do that. There also would be no way to have application defined hooks (unless, of course, it creates shell scripts that invoke its own binary).
