stage_fixed (or equivalent) for changed files not originally staged
:zap: Summary
IIUC, currently stage_fixed only affects the files originally in the glob. I'm trying to use lefthook for code/documentation generation, and so some steps create/modify files not part of the original staged set/glob results.
Value
Allows using pre-commit for generated files (e.g. documentation)
Behavior and configuration changes
For a silly example, consider a hook that duplicates files:
pre-commit:
commands:
clone:
stage_fixed: true
glob: "*.txt"
run: cp {staged_files} backup
I initially expected that this would commit both the manually-created file and its backup, but instead it commits the original file and creates the backup but does not stage/commit it. I would like to see a variant of stage_fixed that also adds any files not originally staged for the commit that change during the command.
