Git pre-commit check to stop accidental commits to master/main/develop branches.

install-pre-commit.sh

#!/bin/bash
# This gist contains pre-commit hooks to prevent you from commiting bad code or to the wrong branch.
# There are six variants that I have built:
# - pre-commit: stops commits to master/main/develop branches.
# - pre-commit-2: also includes a core.whitespace check.
# - pre-commit-3: the core.whitespace check and an EOF-newline-check.
# - pre-commit-4: only the core.whitespace check.
# - pre-commit-5: elixir formatting check.
# - pre-commit-6: prettier formatting check.
# Set the desired version like this before proceeding:
# FILE=pre-commit

# Install in current Git repo only:
# curl -fL https://gist.githubusercontent.com/stefansundin/9059706/raw/install-pre-commit.sh | sh -s ${FILE:-pre-commit}
# Uninstall:
# rm .git/hooks/pre-commit

# Global installation instructions: (requires git 2.9 or later)
# NOTE: if you configure core.hooksPath, then git will only run the hooks from that directory (and will ignore repo-specific hooks in .git/hooks/).
# mkdir $HOME/.githooks
# git config --global core.hooksPath $HOME/.githooks
# curl -fL -o $HOME/.githooks/pre-commit https://gist.githubusercontent.com/stefansundin/9059706/raw/${FILE:-pre-commit}
# chmod +x $HOME/.githooks/pre-commit
# Uninstall:
# rm $HOME/.githooks/pre-commit
