Message-ID: <20060624032908.GH19461@redhat.com> (raw)

I've grepped around, and come up with nothing, so hopefully
I'm not overlooking some already-implemented feature
(though it'd be great if I am).  How much work is involved in
creating a mechanism where some scripts living in say .git/triggers/
get executed on commits ?

The idea behind this stems from some scripts I've been running
periodically against an mbox of the daily kernel commits, which
greps for common bugs; kmalloc(GFP, size) instead of kmalloc(size,GFP),
memsets with reversed 2nd/3rd args etc etc.

It'd be useful I think to have a way to hook up such a script
to git's commit process that aborts a commit if a script returns
a hit, forcing the user to fix up the mistake before committing
it to the world.

thoughts ?

		Dave
