### Catching the `git commit` command ### Catching the `git commit` command
Would you like to catch and automatically store the commits when you do `git commit`? Would you like to catch and automatically store the commits when you do `git commit`?
#### Using `git` hooks
The way I recommend to track your git commits is to use git hooks. Run the following command to initialize the `post-commit` git hook.
```sh
# Using curl
curl -s https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats/git-hooks/scripts/init-git-post-commit | bash
# ...or wget
wget -qO- https://raw.githubusercontent.com/IonicaBizau/git-stats/git-hooks/scripts/init-git-post-commit | bash
```
Then, you have to run `git init` into your existing git repositories from your local machine (that's because the `post-commit` should be updated). This
step will not be needed after clonning a repository (the git hooks will be added automatically from `~/.git-templates`).
