Branch Name Argument?

[mcdonnell-john]

Hi,

I just came across this project as I was looking to introduce git hooks into our project, specifically a pre-push hook to verify that a branch name conforms to our standard naming convention. I can see there's args that can be passed into each hook, just wondering if there is a prebuilt arg for branch name, or how I can get it?

Hi @mcdonnell-john,
There is no built-in branch name variable but you can define your custom one.

to get the active branch name you can use the below command:

git symbolic-ref --short -q HEAD
