Git Hooks Chain

GitHooksChain.md

Instructions

1. Add the hook-chain script to the repository hooks

2. Create a link symbolic to hook-chain with the name of the hook which will be chained

• Eg: post-receive -> hook-chain

3. Add scripts prefixed with the [hookname].

Just that.

Have Fun!!!

hook-chain

#!/bin/bash
hookname=`basename $0`


# reads stdin and saveS IT
data=$(cat)

# array to save exit codes of each script
exitcodes=()

# loop through multiple hook scripts and call then 
# scripts should be named like post-receive-push_to_mirror, post-receive-notify, etc

for hook in $GIT_DIR/hooks/$hookname-*
do
    test -x "$hook" || continue
    echo "$data" | "$hook"
    exitcodes+=($?)
done

# If any exit code isn't 0, fail.

for i in "${exitcodes[@]}"; do
  [ "$i" == 0 ] || exit $i
done
