description = "Git hook manager for Ruby projects. The diagnostic flags `--list-hooks` (-l), `--template-dir` (-t), and bare `--help`/`--version` are read-only. `--install` (-i) writes hook scripts into .git/hooks/ for the current repository, with backups; `--uninstall` (-u) restores those backups. `--sign` rewrites the hook signature in .git/hooks/ when the project's .overcommit.yml changes. `--run` (-r) and `--diff <ref>` execute the configured hook chain — those run arbitrary user-defined linters and scripts, so they are not part of the safe surface. v0.69.0 dates to March 2026."
