pre-commit hook

[Niccolum]

As we know, we have a lot of pre-commit hooks tools. I use pre-commit (https://pre-commit.com) and it will be great, if npm will support it (write .pre-commit-hooks.yaml config), for example, for run npm audit as hook before commit. Can you support it?

You can already do that by invoking npm audit in your git hook - what would you imagine npm would do that’s different?

Note that it’s very very dangerous for tools to automatically write stuff to git hooks; there’s a reason why you can’t use git to commit an activated git hook.

This tool require special config for including it in pre-commit tool. Only that stops me) so, my question is - is it possible to include this config in npm repo?
This tool helps to use different hooks in one hook and easy to support zoo of hooks)

What special config would be required for using any tool in a commit hook, with pre-commit or without?

That looks like pre-commit itself needs to be configured so it knows how to use npm - nothing would need to happen in npm itself for that.

hmm. I trying and write about it here. Thanks!
