As noted earlier, `vcsh` will set <$GIT_DIR> and <$GIT_WORK_TREE> to the appropriate values for fake bare git repositories. +## HOOK SYSTEM + +`vcsh` provides a hook system. Hook scripts need to be executable and placed +in <$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vcsh/hooks-available>. From there, they should be +soft-linked <$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vcsh/hooks-enabled>. + +Hooks follow a simple format. `pre-run` will be run before anything is run. +If you want to have more than one script for a certain hook, just append +strings to order them. A system of `pre-run`, `pre-run.10`, `pre-run.20` etc +is suggested. The dot it optional. + +If you want to create hooks for a specific `vcsh` repository, simply prepend +the repository's name, followed by a dot, i.e. `zsh.pre-run`. This dot is +mandatory. + +## DETAILED HOWTO AND FURTHER READING + +Man pages are intended to be short and thus often useless to glean best +practices from. This software comes with a file called .

For example, -speaking, adding a `sudo`(8) rule for `vcsh` would be pretty stupid. +adding a `sudo`(8) rule for `vcsh` would be pretty stupid. + +Additionally, vcsh will source, i.e. execute, <$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/vcsh/config>. +You can put any and all commands into this config file and they will be executed. ## BUGS
