Git hooks I use to avoid shooting myself in the foot with Stacked Git (StGit)

check-stgit.sh

#!/bin/bash

# Look for an executable named "stg" and assume that it's StGit
STGIT=$(which stg)

if [[ ! -z $STGIT ]]; then
  if [[ -x $STGIT ]]; then
    if ($STGIT top >&/dev/null); then
      echo "*"
      echo "*  Whoa there!! You have at least one StGit patch applied:"
      echo "*"
      $STGIT series | sed "s/^/*      /"
      echo "*"
      echo "*  If these patches are safe to include in the push, turn them into commits"
      echo "*  first (stg commit -a)."
      echo "*"
      echo "*  Otherwise, please pop them off the stack (stg pop -a)."
      echo "*"
      exit 1
    fi
  fi
fi

pre-push

#!/bin/bash
${0%/*}/check-stgit.sh

pre-rebase

#!/bin/bash
${0%/*}/check-stgit.sh

All of these files live under .git/hooks in a local repo. Don't forget to set the execute bit.
