Git configuration

BLT provides Git hooks that must be symlinked into your local repository’s .git directory, using the blt:init:git-hooks task during the onboarding process.

These hooks should be used on all projects, as they will save developers time. In particular, the pre-commit hook will prevent a Git commit if validation fails on the code being committed (which will also occur during blt:validate calls during continuous integration).

Provided Hooks

BLT provides the following default hooks for your use:

  • commit-msg: Validates the syntax of a Git commit message before it is committed locally.
  • pre-commit: Runs Drupal Code Sniffer on committed code before it is committed locally.
