Check out the sample hooks:

Add a hook to check the shell scripts in `$GIT_REPO` before making a commit:
```bash
echo '#!/bin/sh
shellcheck *.sh' > .git/hooks/commit-msg
chmod u+x .git/hooks/commit-msg
```
## Committing
Your `git hooks` will not enter the repository, but you can commit them to a repository, then request others add these git hooks to their own branch, by putting a note in the project's `README.md`.
```markdown
The project comes with recommended git hooks.
You can activate the hooks with `git config core.hooksPath hooks`.

You can add key servers by adding this to `~/.gnupg/gpg.conf`.

# Refresh Keys
Refreshing keys will tell you if some key you have contains a signature from someone you already trust, or if someone has published a revocation certificate (meaning their key should not be trusted any more).
```bash

You can use the [crontab](../basics/cron.md) to refresh keys.
# Export
