All repo-level hooks are expected to live in a single project at the
top level of that project. The name of the hooks project is provided
in the manifest.xml. The manifest also lists which hooks are enabled
to make it obvious if a file somehow failed to sync down (or got
deleted).
Before running any hook, we will prompt the user to make sure that it
is OK. A user can deny running the hook, allow once, or allow
"forever" (until hooks change). This tries to keep with the git
spirit of not automatically running anything on the user's computer
that got synced down. Note that individual repo commands can add
always options to avoid these prompts as they see fit (see below for
the 'upload' options).
When hooks are run, they are loaded into the current interpreter (the
one running repo) and their main() function is run. This mechanism is
used (instead of using subprocess) to make it easier to expand to a
richer hook interface in the future. During loading, the
interpreter's sys.path is updated to contain the directory containing
the hooks so that hooks can be split into multiple files.
The upload command has two options that control hook behavior:
- no-verify=False, verify=False (DEFAULT):
If stdout is a tty, can prompt about running upload hooks if needed.
If user denies running hooks, the upload is cancelled. If stdout is
not a tty and we would need to prompt about upload hooks, upload is
cancelled.
- no-verify=False, verify=True:
Always run upload hooks with no prompt.
- no-verify=True, verify=False:
Never run upload hooks, but upload anyway (AKA bypass hooks).
- no-verify=True, verify=True:
Invalid
Sample bit of manifest.xml code for enabling hooks (assumes you have a
project named 'hooks' where hooks are stored):
<repo-hooks in-project="hooks" enabled-list="pre-upload" />
Sample main() function in pre-upload.py in hooks directory:
def main(project_list, **kwargs):
print ('These projects will be uploaded: %s' %
', '.join(project_list))
print ('I am being a good boy and ignoring anything in kwargs\n'
'that I don\'t understand.')
print 'I fail 50% of the time. How flaky.'
if random.random() <= .5:
raise Exception('Pre-upload hook failed. Have a nice day.')

This feature is used to convey information on a when a branch has
ceased development or if it is an experimental branch with a few
gotchas, etc.
You add it to your manifest XML by doing something like this:
<manifest>
<notice>
NOTE TO DEVELOPERS:
If you checkin code, you have to pinky-swear that it contains no bugs.
Anyone who breaks their promise will have tomatoes thrown at them in the
team meeting. Be sure to bring an extra set of clothes.
</notice>
<remote ... />
...
</manifest>
Carriage returns and indentation are relevant for the text in this tag.
This feature was requested by Anush Elangovan on the ChromiumOS team.
This option allows the user to specify a manifest server to use when
syncing. This manifest server will provide a manifest pegging each
project to a known green build. This allows developers to work on a
known good tree that is known to build and pass tests, preventing
failed builds to hamper productivity.
The manifest used is not "sticky" so as to allow subsequent
'repo sync' calls to sync to the tip of the tree.

If the manifest repository is on a detached HEAD and we are parsing
an XML formatted manifest we should simply set the branch property
to None, rather than crash with an AttributeError.

The revisionExpr field now holds an expression from the manifest,
such as "refs/heads/master", while revisionId holds the current
commit-ish SHA-1 of the revisionExpr. Currently that is only
filled in if the manifest points directly to a SHA-1.

We now feed Project a RemoteSpec, instead of the Remote directly
from the XmlManifest. This way the RemoteSpec already has the
full project URL, rather than just the base, permitting other
types of manifests to produce the URL in their own style.

We'll soon be supporting two different manifest formats, but we
can't immediately remove support for the current XML one that is
in wide spread use within Android.
