Hog supports a series of special git hooks serving different purposes. The full list of the special keywords is described in this section.
Merge Request description keywords#
When a Merge Request is created, the description field can be filled with the following keywords:
MAJOR_VERSION: indicates that a new major version will be released. After the branch is merged, the new tag will bev<M+1>.<m>.<p>(where M = major, m = minor and p = patch).MINOR_VERSION: indicates that a new minor version will be released. After the branch is merged, the new tag will bev<M>.<m+1>.<p>(where M = major, m = minor and p = patch).
Note
If neither of the two flags is selected, by default the patch number will be increased by 1.
Commit keywords#
FEATURE: if a commit message contains the FEATURE keywords plus a description message, the message will be automatically added to the git changelog after the branch has been merged.RESOLVE_WIP: if a commit message contains this keyword, the Draft status will be removed from the merge request to start the CI pipeline.
