Prefligit is a tool to manage and run Git hooks efficiently, helping enforce code quality and commit standards. It’s a clone of the popular precommit project, but refactored in Rust for better performance and reliability.
🧩 My Contribution: Script Language Support for Prefligit Hooks #
The goal of this contribution was to enhance Prefligit by allowing users to define and run custom scripts as Git hooks, such as pre-commit and commit-msg. I worked on adding the “script” language support for these hooks.
I contributed to the Prefligit repository by adding script language support for hook scripts:
🔗 Pull Request: #252 – feat(script): add script hooks support to prefligit
🔗 Related issue: #45 – Support for script hooks
📌 Status: Merged and Closed
🔧 What I Implemented #
- Added the ability to run scripts as hooks, e.g. for git hooks like pre-commit and commit-msg.
- Supported testing with sample scripts including:
- Precommit trailing spaces check
- Commit-msg conventional commit verb validation (feat, misc, etc.)
- Provided example test repository: precommit-hooks-test
💡 Why It Matters #
- 🛠️ Extends Prefligit’s flexibility by allowing custom scripting in hooks.
- 🔒 Helps teams enforce commit standards and code hygiene automatically.
