post-commit

#!/bin/sh
# This post-commit hook is designed to serve as a central script for any repository you want to backup (via git bundle)
# based on the original idea of David Gageot https://gist.github.com/736547

# Backup configuration
backupRoot="$HOME/Mes documents/My Dropbox/gitbackup/"
#howManyTime=--since=5.days
howManyTime=-10
branchToBackup=master

# After some testing (under msysgit only for the moment), it seems like whereever you commit, the post-commit hook
# always gets executed from the repository root.
# So, let's just take the repository directory name for the bundle.Even when pwd
currentDirectory=`pwd`
backupFileName=`basename $currentDirectory`
git bundle create "$backupRoot$backupFileName" $howManyTime $branchToBackup

echo "Backup ok (time=$howManyTime,branch=$branchToBackup)"

# TODO/IDEAS
# * Externalize backup script, so that one can decide how&where he wants to backup
# * support many branches to backup if specified
# * Use default "git config" properties to get non-default values for this script

Note : to enable it on any repository on your machine, put this script in the $GIT_HOME/share/git-core/templates/ and re-run git init in every repository you want to backup.
