Überblick
Git plugin that prevents sensitive data from being committed
Verlauf
git-hound is a Git plugin for preventing sensitive data from entering commits. It checks staged diffs against user-provided PCRE regular expressions before commit operations proceed.
The repository was created in November 2015 as a Go command-line plugin. Its README presents Hound as a small Git extension with precompiled release binaries, Go installation, and Homebrew installation paths.
git-hound fits the mid-2010s rise of local secret-scanning tools, when teams began adding pre-commit checks for passwords, database settings, tokens, and machine-specific paths. Its adoption stayed niche compared with larger scanners, but the repository attracted several hundred stars and was packaged for Homebrew and Nix.
Practitioners run `git hound commit` to sniff staged changes before invoking `git commit`, or `git hound sniff` to scan a commit, a manual diff, a whole codebase, or repository history. The `.githound.yml` file separates warning patterns, failure patterns, and skipped filenames.
The package is interesting because it exposes Git's plugin naming convention: installing `git-hound` makes `git hound` available. It is also a compact example of pre-commit security tooling before secret scanning became a standard hosted-platform feature.
