commit-hook for finding text

pre-commit

#!/usr/bin/env python

import sys, os, re
import subprocess

diff = subprocess.check_output(['git', 'diff', 'HEAD'])

def check_for_text(text, diff):
	exp = re.compile(text)
	match = exp.search(diff)

	if match:
		print "Please remove the '@sandbox' tag"
		sys.exit(1)
	else:
		sys.exit(0)

check_for_text('\+.*(?P<sandbox>(?<!")@sandbox)', diff)

Maybe not the most effective, but I wanted to practice/keep learning python.

updated the pre-commit so that it ignores any @sandbox tags that are immediately preceded by a "
presumably, these are in runner files, and haven't been left in the repo by accident
