Subject: [PATCH 4/4] hook: allow out-of-repo 'git hook' invocations
Date: Wed, 4 Feb 2026 18:51:26 +0200 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260204165126.1548805-5-adrian.ratiu@collabora.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20260204165126.1548805-1-adrian.ratiu@collabora.com>
From: Emily Shaffer <emilyshaffer@google•com>
Since hooks can now be supplied via the config, and a config can be
present without a gitdir via the global and system configs, we can start
to allow 'git hook run' to occur without a gitdir. This enables us to do
things like run sendemail-validate hooks when running 'git send-email'
from a nongit directory.
It still doesn't make sense to look for hooks in the hookdir in nongit
repos, though, as there is no hookdir.
