# Description
Git hook to prepare commit message.
Will check if you're allowed to commit or not, if you're allowed to commit, check if there is a reference that matches the branch
if not it will update the commit message.
# How to use
build the project:
```
cargo install git-hook-commit-ref
```
# Install the hook to your current git repo:
```sh
cd my_git_project
git hook-commit-ref --install
```
## Configure your git repo
in your project, edit the `.git/config` file to add the organization and the project name, and a list of forbidden branches to commit from.
eg:
```
[commit-ref-hook]
org = "rednaks"
project = "git-hook-commit-ref"
forbiddenbranches = "master, release"
branchpattern = "(?P<org>\w+).*-(?P<issue_number>\d+).*"
```
## Branch name
the default branch name should match the `<org>-<issue_number>` pattern, but if your branch name is different, make sure to add the regex matching your branch name.
don't forget to add `org` and `issue_number` to capture the matches.
`org` is optional, but `issue_number` is required.
### Check everything is good:
To check that everything works and configured, you can use `git hook-commit-ref --check` in your git repo.
