GitGuardian

GitGuardian is a utility to set up Git hooks and configuration files for enforcing branch name validation and commit message linting in a project using popular packages like Husky, Validate Branch Name, and Commitlint. It installs necessary dependencies, creates configuration files, sets up package.json scripts, and adds Husky hooks. Branch names are validated against a specified pattern, and commit messages are linted based on conventional commit guidelines.

Features

• Validates branch names to follow a specific pattern.
• Enforces commit message format using conventional commit standards.
• Provides hooks for pre-commit checks to ensure code quality before committing.

Installation

To install GitGuardian, run the following command:

npm install git-guardian

Configuration

GitGuardian provides the following configuration files:

• .validate-branch-namerc: Configures the branch name pattern and error message.
• commitlint.config.js: Configures the commit message format and rules.

You can modify these files according to your project's requirements.
