Restrict developers from pushing to specific branch or branches

pre-push

branch="$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)"

#----------------------------------------------------------------
# RESTRICT BRANCHES FROM DIRECT PUSH
#----------------------------------------------------------------
if [ "$branch" = "master" ] || [ "$branch" = "release" ]; then
  echo "You can't commit directly to $branch"
  exit 1
fi

Can we add unit tests in pre-push?

@provSoniyaPatwa you can check pre-commit hook. There I have mentioned how to check whether the build is successfully compiling.
Similarly, you can run unit tests before push or commit.

@milankamilya thanks!
