# [PATCH] githooks documentation: post-checkout hook is also called after clone 2 messages from 2009-03-22 to 2009-03-22. Participants: Jens Lehmann, Pat Notz. Thread: https://gitlist.dev/t/18467 ## Jens Lehmann, 2009-03-22 16:44 Subject: [PATCH] githooks documentation: post-checkout hook is also called after clone Message-ID: <49C66B03.6020908@web.de> URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/49C66B03.6020908%40web.de ``` The documentation of the post-checkout hook just talks about git-checkout. But recently git-clone was changed to call it too, so we have to document that in githooks.txt.
