Get Git::Hooks working with Perlbrew

gistfile1.md

Introduction

Git::Hooks requires Git.pm, which is not available on CPAN but does come with most system perl installations.

echo $PERL5LIB

If you have just one location you are golden. If you have many, separated by a ':', pick one and replace the following $PERL5LIB with that location.

When in doubt take a look at the output of

perlbrew info
#and/or
env |grep -i perl

Download directly

curl https://raw.githubusercontent.com/git/git/master/perl/Git.pm >> $PERL5LIB/Git.pm
cpanm Git::Hooks

Copy it over

locate Git.pm

Copy it over to your desired lib

All together now.

locate | xargs -0 -I {} cp {} $PERL5LIB/Git.pm
cpanm Git::Hooks
