在检测到修改后的文件后，是否立即运行git钩子？

Question

Let's say after git pull - ing -or- git clone - ing , Juan edited a single file called hello-world.txt .

Is there a git hook that runs immediately after the modification of the said file?

Answer 1

I don't think it's possible because there is no hook for file update.

Here's the complete list of hooks available.

applypatch-msg
pre-applypatch
post-applypatch
pre-commit
prepare-commit-msg
commit-msg
post-commit
pre-rebase
post-checkout
post-merge
pre-receive
update
post-receive
post-update
pre-auto-gc
post-rewrite
pre-push

Hope it helps!

Git does not have a hook for that, but there are many other tools you can use to watch for changes to files and then run a command. They do require you to start the tool before you make the modification, though.

Some tools are listed in the answers to How to execute a command whenever a file changes? . Here are two examples:

Running make automatically with entr :

echo hello-world.txt | entr make

Running make automatically with watchexec :

watchexec --exts txt make

If you don't want to have to start the watching tool yourself, you could try starting it in a Git hook such as post-receive .
