Prevent pushing fixup, squash, and WIP commits to master.
#!/bin/sh
# An example hook script to verify what is about to be pushed to master. Called
# by "git push" after it has checked the remote status, but before anything has
# been pushed. If this script exits with a non-zero status nothing will be
# pushed.
#
# This hook is called with the following parameters:
#
# $1 -- Name of the remote to which the push is being done
# $2 -- URL to which the push is being done
#
# If pushing without using a named remote those arguments will be equal.
#
# Information about the commits which are being pushed is supplied as lines to
# the standard input in the form:
#
# <local ref> <local sha1> <remote ref> <remote sha1>
#
# This sample shows how to prevent push of commits where the log message starts
# with "WIP" (work in progress).

Add this to your git hooks directory and make it executable. Before git pushes it will run this hook which can stop incomplete work being pushed.


You can create a shared hooks directory that will be used by all repositories on you system.

Place this file somewhere and then run git config --global core.hooksPath <path>.
