Git commit hooks per branch

Viewed 8558

I'm working on getting into some more advanced usage of git, and I think hooks are the way that I want to go, perhaps somebody can give me some advice here.

My plan is to have a git repository with 3 branches (development, staging, and production). I want commits to each of these 3 branches to trigger a different script post-commit.

Does git have the capability to do this or am I barking up the wrong tree?

Thanks in advance.

I had written a script for myself to do this functionality.

Host this file on your server, preferably repo root and define the url in github webhooks. Change 'allcommits' on line 8 with your branch name and add your code/function at line 18.

You will need separate files and webhooks for all your 3 instances.

Hope this helps!
