Contains the following pre-commit hooks:

• Require commit messages of a certain length
• Disallow modification of tagged files
• Require new files in certain folders to be added last, alphabetically

More details below.

For an example of how to run the scripts in a hook, see the file pre-commit-example.

Usage: [script].py REPOS TXN

Run pre-commit verification on a repository transaction.

Options:
  -h, --help      show this help message and exit
  -r, --revision  Test mode. Specify a revision instead of a transaction.

Requires all commit message to have a configured minimum length. Default is 3 characters.

Disallows any other changes than copy and delete on created and existing tagged files.

This check can be skipped by supplying a keyword in the commit message. Default is skip-tag-check.

A pre-commit script in python checking that certain files are added, modified or removed last in aplhabetical order.

This is for example useful in projects where database migration scripts are executed alphabetically.

This check can be skipped by supplying a keyword in the commit message. Default is skip-migration-check.

Consider an SVN repository with the following contents:

module1/
  db/
    01.migration
    02.migration
    04.migration
module2/
  db/
    03.migration
    05.migration
    06.migration

Assuming that the script is set up to match the *.migration files in the path db/ for every module, it would not be possible to commit a file named module1/db/05.migration since a file named 06.migration exists in module2. A correct filename would rather be module1/db/07.migration.

Neither would it be possible to modify or remove any migration but module2/db/06.migration.
