Git Hooks for branch naming convention

.githooks/pre-commit file helps to restrict the branch naming convention and follows the custom naming convention.

How its works

Every time made a commit on the branch, .githooks/pre-commit script will execute on local and validate the branch name. If the branch name adheres to the policy, then it allows doing commit otherwise it will block.

Setup

Prerequisites:

Git version 2.34 +

Run the below command to makes .git to run the .githooks/pre-commit script for every commit in the particular repo.

git config core.hooksPath .githooks

Note: Above, the command needs to run every first-time clone of the repo. Not required to run for commit and other git operations.

Checkout the Branch naming convention to define the branch name.
