git-hook - Run git hooks
git hook run [--ignore-missing] [--to-stdin=<path>] <hook-name> [-- <hook-args>]
A command interface for running git hooks (see githooks(5)), for use
by other scripted git commands.
run
Run the <hook-name> hook. See githooks(5) for supported hook
names.
Any positional arguments to the hook should be passed after a
mandatory -- (or --end-of-options, see gitcli(7)). See
githooks(5) for arguments hooks might expect (if any).
--to-stdin
For "run"; specify a file which will be streamed into the hook's
stdin. The hook will receive the entire file from beginning to
EOF.
--ignore-missing
Ignore any missing hook by quietly returning zero. Used for tools
that want to do a blind one-shot run of a hook that may or may
not be present.
