name : push-to-checkout.sample #!/bin/sh # An example hook script to update a checked-out tree on a git push. # # This hook is invoked by git-receive-pack(1) when it reacts to git # push and updates reference(s) in its repository, and when the push # tries to update the branch that is currently checked out and the # receive.denyCurrentBranch configuration variable is set to # updateInstead. # # By default, such a push is refused if the working tree and the index # of the remote repository has any difference from the currently # checked out commit; when both the working tree and the index match # the current commit, they are updated to match the newly pushed tip # of the branch. This hook is to be used to override the default # behaviour; however the code below reimplements the default behaviour # as a starting point for convenient modification. # # The hook receives the commit with which the tip of the current # branch is going to be updated: commit=$1 # It can exit with a non-zero status to refuse the push (when it does # so, it must not modify the index or the working tree). die () { echo >&2 "$*" exit 1 } # Or it can make any necessary changes to the working tree and to the # index to bring them to the desired state when the tip of the current # branch is updated to the new commit, and exit with a zero status. # # For example, the hook can simply run git read-tree -u -m HEAD "$1" # in order to emulate git fetch that is run in the reverse direction # with git push, as the two-tree form of git read-tree -u -m is # essentially the same as git switch or git checkout that switches # branches while keeping the local changes in the working tree that do # not interfere with the difference between the branches. # The below is a more-or-less exact translation to shell of the C code # for the default behaviour for git's push-to-checkout hook defined in # the push_to_deploy() function in builtin/receive-pack.c. # # Note that the hook will be executed from the repository directory, # not from the working tree, so if you want to perform operations on # the working tree, you will have to adapt your code accordingly, e.g. # by adding "cd .." or using relative paths. if ! git update-index -q --ignore-submodules --refresh then die "Up-to-date check failed" fi if ! git diff-files --quiet --ignore-submodules -- then die "Working directory has unstaged changes" fi # This is a rough translation of: # # head_has_history() ?
