Pre-push hooks
To reduce review turn-around time, we'd like all pushes to run tests locally. We'd
recommend you use our provided pre-push hook in config/pre-push-recommended.sh.
Using this hook will guarantee your hook gets updated as the repository changes.
This hook tries to run as much as possible without taking too much time.
To add it on Mac/Linux, run this command from the project root:
ln -s ../../config/pre-push-recommended.sh .git/hooks/pre-push
or for Windows run this command with administrative privileges:
mklink .git\hooks\pre-push ..\..\config\pre-push-recommended.sh
To push without running the pre-push hook (e.g. doc updates):
git push <remote> --no-verify
