## プロジェクトの歴史と使われ方

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.

### プロジェクトの歴史

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.

### 採用の歴史

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.

### 使われ方

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.

### パッケージ好きにとっての重要性

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.

### タイムライン

- 2015: GitHub repository created for the Go implementation.
- 2016: Several 0.5.x releases publish packaged binaries.
- 2017: 0.6.x releases continue the pre-1.0 line.
- 2020: 1.0.0 release published.

### Related projects

- git-hound is related to Git hooks, pre-commit frameworks, and secret scanners such as git-secrets and truffleHog, all of which try to catch sensitive strings before or after they enter Git history.
