NAME
git-hook - Run git hooks
SYNOPSIS
git hook run [--ignore-missing] [--to-stdin=] [-- ]
DESCRIPTION
A command interface for running git hooks (see githooks(5)), for use by other scripted git commands.
SUBCOMMANDS
run
Run the hook. See githooks(5) for supported hook names.
Any positional arguments to the hook should be passed after a mandatory -- (or --end-of-options,
see gitcli(7)). See githooks(5) for arguments hooks might expect (if any).
OPTIONS
--to-stdin
For "run"; specify a file which will be streamed into the hook’s stdin. The hook will receive the
entire file from beginning to EOF.
--ignore-missing
Ignore any missing hook by quietly returning zero. Used for tools that want to do a blind
one-shot run of a hook that may or may not be present.
