Git hook fowarding to multiple user-defined paths

git-multihook

Configure multiple global and local directories for git hooks.

Setup

Clone this repository

$ git clone https://github.com/coloursofnoise/git-multihook.git

Tell git to always run hooks in the cloned repository

$ git config --global core.hooksPath "$(PWD)/git-multihook"

Configuration

The multihook.hooksPath git configuration variable can be set to a colon-separated list of paths, each of which will be checked for hook scripts when any git hook is run.

Default: ./.git/hooks

$ git config --global multihook.hooksPath "${HOME}/.config/git/hooks:./.git/hooks"

How it works

Setting core.hooksPath globally causes git to look for hooks within the specified directory. This repository contains hooks that will look for and run their corresponding hooks in every directory in the multihook.hooksPath configuration variable.
