Subversion Repository Hook : detect-empty-log
Description:
This Pre-Commit hook can be used to detect empty log messages. If the log message is empty, the commit is aborted.
Installation:
These instructions assume that you are using the subversion command line interface on a Unix system. Your process may be slightly different depending on client and operating system.
- Check out your /rice-config repository folder
svn co https://svn.rice.edu/r/REPONAME/rice_config
- Change to the rice_config folder
cd rice_config/
- Create a folder called hooks if it doesn't exist already
mkdir hooks/
- Change into the hooks folder
cd hooks/
- Create a file called detect-empty-log
touch detect-empty-log
- Add the directory and file to the repository
cd ../../ svn add hooks svn commit -m "Added detect-empty-log hook to the repository"
Configuration
No configuration is required for this hook. Merely adding the empty file will enable the hook.
