Subject: Git Hooks
Date: Fri, 15 Dec 2017 11:12:42 -0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <CAMZug24WGWS3TaNPOVWPufGZ+67EbLggr4W3pxJtis9X375mag@mail.gmail.com> (raw)

I see that `git init` creates a .git directory and hooks are to be
placed in that directory and these hooks are not tracked by version
control. To achieve tracked hooks, either each developer has to copy
the hooks or use tools like overcommit, pre-commit, husky etc.

I'm wondering why hooks are not made external like .gitignore. I guess
it would be better to have two git configuration directories in a
repo, one hosting all the metadata managed by git and the other with
user configured data (hooks, ignore/exclude, repo config etc).

Kindly let me know why the current design choice is made and if the
proposed change would introduce unseen issues.


Thanks,
Satya
