SYSTEM DOCUMENTATION & REQUIREMENTS

What problem does it solve?

Enforcing code quality, running tests, and formatting code before commits or pushes is essential for team collaboration but often requires manual setup of Git hooks, which can be complex and inconsistent across developers. This Skill automates the process.

Core Features & Use Cases

  • Pre-Commit Hooks: Creates hooks for linting, formatting, and running unit tests on changed files.
  • Pre-Push Hooks: Sets up hooks to run the full test suite and build verification before pushing to remote.
  • Commit Message Enforcement: Installs commit-msg hooks to enforce conventional commit message formats.
  • Use Case: Set up automated Git hooks for a Node.js project to run linters and formatters on staged files, configure pre-commit for a Python project to ensure code quality, or enforce conventional commit messages across your team.

Quick Start

Setup git hooks for my Node.js project.

Frequently Asked Questions about git-hooks-manager

High-intent search queries and answers about installing and using this skill.

FAQPage Schema
How do I automate code quality checks before committing code?▼

Git hooks automate code quality checks by running linters, formatters, and tests on staged files before commits are allowed. This Skill sets up pre-commit hooks for Node.js, Python, and manual projects, blocking commits when checks fail and ensuring consistent code standards across your team.

What's the difference between pre-commit and pre-push hooks?▼

Pre-commit hooks run linting and formatting on staged files before each commit, catching issues early. Pre-push hooks run the full test suite and build verification before pushing to remote, preventing broken code from reaching shared branches. This Skill configures both.

Can I enforce conventional commit messages across my team?▼

Yes. This Skill installs commit-msg hooks that validate commit messages against conventional commit formats, ensuring your team follows consistent message conventions. Commits with invalid messages are rejected before they're recorded.

Do git hooks work with both Node.js and Python projects?▼

Yes. This Skill supports Node.js projects using Husky, Python projects using pre-commit, and manual hook configuration in .git/hooks for other workflows. Each setup method integrates with your existing toolchain and dependencies.

How do I set up git hooks without additional dependencies?▼

This Skill provides manual hook configuration by writing scripts directly to .git/hooks when you prefer to avoid dependency managers. You define the hook logic directly and control exactly what runs before commits or pushes.

What happens if a code quality check fails during commit?▼

The commit is blocked and prevented from completing. Failing linters, formatters, tests, or message validation hooks stop the commit process, forcing you to fix the issues before trying again. This ensures only code meeting your standards reaches the repository.
