Description

Hi, in case that your discourse forum currently is empty, I hopefully may ask this question here.

I currently use gitolite for a fine granulated rights management but like to replace it due to the nice interface from gitea and easier user experience.

It seems to me easy just to create some additional git-hooks to gitea which are working like gitolite.

Where is the "best place" to automatically integrate such kind of hooks. As I saw, the hooks from gitea, are prepared at models/repo.go->createDelegateHooks

https://github.com/go-gitea/gitea/blob/master/models/repo.go#L948-L981

Would this be the right place to also add some additional default hooks?

Thanks for a short hint how you would suggest to proceed.

You can add your hooks on the UI. on every repository's settings -> hooks

Hi @lunny

thanks for your feedback.

Yes I know, that I can do this manually every time on a repository. I am looking for a solution to do this automatically every time a repo is newly created.

I would like to check also, if there could be an option to integrate within gitea, that maybe also the groups and rights for a user could be used for a granulated rights management.

So my question is: How to add additional hooks by default during gitea repo creation.

Thanks for help

You can change default hook templates system-wide in /usr/share/git-core/templates/hooks/

Hi @lafriks

ok, that is also an option but in case that they will only make sense to gitea integration and I also want them to be administrateable via the gitea gui, I think those should be added into gitea.

That is at least what I would prefer.

Hi @lunny

should I do something else. If you marked that as feature and proposal, this means it can`t work currently? Correct?

Thanks for some guidiance.

It's marked as proposal for initial issue. Not having values in script arguments is other issue and is probably bug

Just checked and hooks seems to work just fine.
