Overview

Configure Git hooks to enforce code quality standards, run automated checks, and prevent problematic commits from being pushed to shared repositories.

When to Use

Pre-commit code quality checks
Commit message validation
Preventing secrets in commits
Running tests before push
Code formatting enforcement
Linting configuration
Team-wide standards enforcement

Quick Start

Minimal working example:

#!/bin/bash
# setup-husky.sh

# Install Husky
npm install husky --save-dev

# Initialize Husky
npx husky install

# Create pre-commit hook
npx husky add .husky/pre-commit "npm run lint"

# Create commit-msg hook
npx husky add .husky/commit-msg 'npx --no -- commitlint --edit "$1"'

# Create pre-push hook
npx husky add .husky/pre-push "npm run test"

# Create post-merge hook
npx husky add .husky/post-merge "npm install"

Best Practices

✅ DO

Enforce pre-commit linting and formatting
Validate commit message format
Scan for secrets before commit
Run tests on pre-push
Skip hooks only with --no-verify (rarely)
Document hook requirements in README
Use consistent hook configuration
Make hooks fast (< 5 seconds)
Provide helpful error messages
Allow developers to bypass with clear warnings

❌ DON'T

Skip checks with --no-verify
Store secrets in committed files
Use inconsistent implementations
Ignore hook errors
Run full test suite on pre-commit
