Can Git hook scripts be managed along with the repository?

In Git 2.9, the configuration option core.hooksPath specifies a custom hooks directory. Move your hooks to a hooks tracked directory in your repository. Then, configure each instance of the repository to use the tracked hooks instead of $GIT_DIR/hooks: git config core.hooksPath hooks In general, the path may be absolute, or relative to the directory where … Read more

Deploy a project using Git push

I found this script on this site and it seems to work quite well. Copy over your .git directory to your web server On your local copy, modify your .git/config file and add your web server as a remote: [remote “production”] url = username@webserver:/path/to/htdocs/.git On the server, replace .git/hooks/post-update with this file (in the answer … Read more
