yaghm 0.3.1

Minimal git hook manager for the command line.

Yet Another Git Hook Manager

Yaghm is a minimal git hook manager. You write a simple YAML config file listing the hooks you want. yaghm enable enables them in your repo. yaghm disable disables them.:

• Yaghm is simple. Hooks are not rocket science. The config is just a list of shell commands. When you enable them, yaghm writes a wrapper script in .git/hooks that calls the commands you gave. If they work in your shell they'll work in the hook.
• Because it's so simple, the documentation is complete, troubleshooting is easy and writing your own extensions is a breeze.
• Your workflow, not mine. You can store the config wherever you want. Maybe you version your hooks, maybe you don't, maybe you keep them in a separate repo, or your home dir, or your dotfiles...

Usage

To use yaghm, you create a config that lists your hook commands (see detailed syntax):

pre-commit:
  - ...
  # Assuming you have a program called current_branch_not
  - current_branch_not master 
  - enable: black --check .
    install: pip install black
    update: pip install -U black
  - enable: require_version_bump master setup.py
    update: pip install -U metovhooks

post-commit:
  - ...

You can use yaghm -h to see general help. There are three main subcommands (which also support -h):

• Enable hooks: yaghm enable
• List enabled hooks: yaghm list
• Disable hooks: yaghm disable

When using enable and disable, if you pass --dryrun no files will actually be written.

You can also run custom hook commands (e.g. update) with yaghm update. If any hooks in your config specify the command, it will be executed.
