commit-check v0.1.0
This is the commit-check project. It is a quick and easy commit style checker that can be used either as a git hook to enforce the style checked by commit-check, or as a syntax checker back-end (like Flycheck).
The entire code for the project is currently contained in the
commit-check file. The files test-pass.txt, test-fail-barely.txt and
test-fail-miserably.txt are used for testing purposes. They contain
and explain certain situations that can occur when writing commits
that may or may not cause errors to be reported.
Installation
commit-check can either be used manually (or as a back-end to some
other tool), or as a git commit-msg hook to stop you from
committing badly styled commit messages.
For manual use
To get this project up and running make sure you have perl
installed and that commit-check is somewhere in your PATH.
As git hook
Place the commit-check executable file in the .git/hooks directory
of your project, with the name commit-msg. It doesn't need to be
the actual executable, it can also be a (soft) link to the
executable, or a script running this program (passing along all
arguments).
