The process in git is pretty simple. Better write a check in the makefile.

That assumes that everyone will always actually run the appropriate make before committing, which I wouldn't assume, especially for a "trivial" patch that's going out when someone is pressed for time. Checking in an unavoidable place seems much more foolproof.

The rule against tabs in SGML files is only a bit of anal retentivity anyway. I don't think that enforcing it is worth special hacks that we do not use anywhere else. regards, tom lane

I disagree. SGML suffers the same as code if you are using tabs. Joshua D.

Hm, aren't you one of the main cheerleaders for moving to git? Why would you want us to be installing any additional CVS dependencies right now? Adding commit hooks would just create another must-do- before-moving task. If we actually desperately *needed* some, maybe it'd be worth it, but I can't see that this kind of thing is worth it. regards, tom lane

Post-git-move would be a better time to revisit this.

Even if you are pressed for time, you are supposed to check your patch. And even then, we have the community and automated build services to pick up after you. > Checking in an unavoidable place seems much more foolproof. I'm going to put in an advance vote here against any kind of code-checking commit hook. Because they live in the repository metadata, they can only be seen and changed by the system administrators, they do not travel with the source code, and they are not under version control themselves. The source code and the scripts and tests to manage it should be self-consistent and not dependent on external containers.
