Example
post-receive hooks can be used to automatically forward incoming pushes to another repository.
$ cat .git/hooks/post-receive
#!/bin/bash
IFS=' '
while read local_ref local_sha remote_ref remote_sha
do
echo "$remote_ref" | egrep '^refs\/heads\/[A-Z]+-[0-9]+$' >/dev/null && {
ref=`echo $remote_ref | sed -e 's/^refs\/heads\///'`
echo Forwarding feature branch to other repository: $ref
git push -q --force other_repos $ref
}
done
In this example, the egrep regexp looks for a specific branch format (here: JIRA-12345 as used to name Jira issues). You can leave this part off if you want to forward all branches, of course.
