I did not understand that from the description. That was my next comment that I did not send just yet. All the other hooks describe in detail if they are run before or after the operation, and if it is possible to cancel the operation. Also, most have names that start with either "pre-" or "post-". It seems reasonable for both "pre-update-branch" and "post-update-branch" to exist. This one would be "pre-update-branch", I guess. I was also wondering about "git reset". It could also change the branch position, right? -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe git" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
