Git pre-commit hook for Ruby on Rails

This pre-commit hook is checks the files being committed to fits two rules:

• No syntax error (both for Ruby and YAML files)
• If this is an TestUnit, Cucumber, or RSpec test, it should pass

TODO

• Add checks for XML files
• Add checks for deep checks for .rb files
• Make it configurable from project's code
