ghk

ghk is a simple git hooks manager.

At it's core all it does is symlink whatever files are in .ghk into .git/hooks.

Some additional niceties include:

• stripping extensions (not yet)

This seems nice because you can get syntax highlighting and more. You can write, pre-commit.sh and have it stripped to pre-commit on symlink.

• verifying .ghk (not yet)

This seems nice because it can keep your hooks healthy. Typos, etc., can be avoided. Basically, it can error out if things aren't perfect

• finding git hooks defined elsewhere (not yet)

In theory you could find git hooks in language and framework dependent ways. E.g., you could defined them in package.hooks in javascript projects.
