✨ NAME ✨

iki-git-hook-update β€” the ikiwiki-hosting git update hook πŸ¦‹


🌸 SYNOPSIS 🌸

iki-git-hook-update

that's it. no flags, no arguments, no drama. she just runs. πŸ’…


πŸ‘‘ DESCRIPTION πŸ‘‘

okay so here's the tea, bestie. πŸ“

This program gets installed by ikisite and it becomes the git update hook for ikiwiki git repositories. that's its whole job, that's its whole moment, main character energy fr fr.

so what does she actually do? she's the bouncer at the club door of your repo. πŸ’€

  • trusted sources β€” can commit literally any change they want. slay, go off, no notes. ✨
  • untrusted sources β€” get limited, hard, because we are NOT letting them do whatever. specifically, she stops them from:
    • making arbitrary new branches πŸ™ˆ (not on her watch)
    • making unsafe changes to the site's setup branch 😭 (absolutely not, that branch is sacred)

so like, the whole point is: trusted peeps get full freedom, untrusted peeps get guardrails. it's giving ✨structured trust✨ and honestly? iconic. 🫢
