{"@context":"https://schema.org","@type":"DiscussionForumPosting","headline":"Improve pre-push file list when merges are involved","articleBody":"If I have a feature branch based on some old commit in `develop` or `master`, and I merge in `develop` or `master`, the pre-push hooks will run over all the merge commit files. Would it be possible to add a setting to provide a known \"good\" branch whose changes can be ignored? This is potentially useful as you gradually roll out a new check on a codebase, or if only some people have hooks installed.\r\n\r\nA current workaround for this is by manually doing something like `git diff $(git merge-base HEAD develop) --name-only [--diff-filter=ACMR?]` in custom hooks, but I'd like to do this for other hooks I haven't written. The effect of this setting would just be to shrink the list of files provided to the hook, so their code wouldn't change.\r\n\r\nExample repo: https://github.com/prem-nuro/precommit-issue-860","author":{"url":"https://github.com/prem-nuro","@type":"Person","name":"prem-nuro"},"datePublished":"2018-11-06T15:27:13.000Z","interactionStatistic":{"@type":"InteractionCounter","interactionType":"https://schema.org/CommentAction","userInteractionCount":29},"url":"https://github.com/860/pre-commit/issues/860"}
