All git requests go through this and if some criteria is true then they're passed to git-http-backend. We also have hooks in our repositories. The problem is that in some cases we don't want the hooks to run. Is it possible to somehow tell git-http-backend that the hooks shouldn't be run? thanks in advance, ákos tajti ``` ## Sitaram Chamarty, 2012-05-26 16:29 Subject: Re: git-http-backend with hooks Message-ID: URL: https://gitlist.dev/e/CAMK1S_hG7%2B5MU00UZouBs6%2B7JvHfxf-b5z%3DHKuJhioWPsc%2BaNw%40mail.gmail.com In-Reply-To: <4FC0E4AB.5050103@intland.com> ``` On Sat, May 26, 2012 at 7:41 PM, Tajti Ákos wrote: > dear list, > > we wrote a script that is basically a proxy before git-http-backend.
