# If your workers are inactive for a long period of time, they'll lose

# This hack ensures we re-connect whenever a connection is
# lost. Because, really. why not?

Git pre-commit hook to verify only valid ruby.
#!/usr/bin/env ruby
#
# A hook script to verify that only syntactically valid ruby code is commited.
# Called by git-commit with no arguments. The hook should
# exit with non-zero status after issuing an appropriate message if
# it wants to stop the commit.
#
# Put this code into a file called "pre-commit" inside your .git/hooks
# directory, and make sure it is executable ("chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit")
