How do you configure a git repository to run code sanity checking tools right before making commits, and preventing them if the test fails?
Answer Posted / Mahendra Pal Gautam
To run code sanity checking tools before making commits in Git, follow these steps:n1. Install the tool(s) on your development machine.n2. Create or update a `pre-commit` hook script to run the tool and exit with an error status if the test fails. Here's an example using a shell script: $ cat .git/hooks/pre-commitn#!/bin/shn# Run your code sanity checking tool here, e.g., eslint or lintn./node_modules/.bin/eslint . --max-warnings=0 || exit 1nSave this script in the `.git/hooks` directory and make it executable: $ chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-commit.n3. If you want to bypass the hook during development, you can add your email address to the `.mailmap` file or use the `--no-verify` option when committing.
