tripauthor

A streamlined Git hook utility for managing commit co-authors that seamlessly integrates with your existing Git workflow.

Installation

# Install tripauthor globally

# Initialize tripauthor in your Git repository

Configuration

Global hooks

By doing this, all repositories will use the global hooks even if they have git hooks configured.

# Setting global hooks path
git config --local core.hooksPath ~/githooks/

# Copy the tripauthor hooks to the global hooks path
# Use `yarn` if you've installed tripauthor locally
echo "exec < /dev/tty && npx tripauthor -f $1` >> ~/githooks/commit-msg

# Set access permissions so that the scripts can be executed by Git
chmod a+x ~/githooks/*

Husky

echo "exec < /dev/tty && yarn tripauthor -f $1" > .husky/commit-msg
chmod a+x .husky/commit-msg
