Pull request overview

Adds an explicit --git-dir flag to prek install so users can force the hook installation target directory, and extends the test suite to cover this behavior (including interaction with core.hooksPath).

Changes:

  • Add --git-dir <GIT_DIR> to the install subcommand CLI args.
  • Wire the parsed git_dir through main.rs into the install implementation.
  • Add integration tests verifying hook installation into a custom git directory and behavior when core.hooksPath is set.

### [`v0.3.12`](https://github.com/j178/prek/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#0312)

[Compare Source](j178/prek@v0.3.11...v0.3.12)

Released on 2026-05-05.

##### Highlights

`auto_update.cooldown_days` is now available in both the user-level global
config (`~/.config/prek/prek.toml` on Linux and macOS, or
`$XDG_CONFIG_HOME/prek/prek.toml` when set; `%APPDATA%\prek\prek.toml` on
Windows) and project config. Set a user default for `prek auto-update`, then
override it per project when a repository needs a different update cadence.

```toml
[auto_update]
cooldown_days = 7
```

##### Enhancements

- Support `language: dart` ([#&#8203;1146](j178/prek#1146))

##### Bug fixes

- Pass commit message file to workspace hooks ([#&#8203;2043](j178/prek#2043))

### [`v0.3.11`](https://github.com/j178/prek/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#0311)

[Compare Source](j178/prek@v0.3.10...v0.3.11)

Released on 2026-04-27.

##### Highlights

Hook entries now have an explicit `shell` option for shell snippets. Set
`shell: sh`, `bash`, `pwsh`, `powershell`, or `cmd` when an entry should be
evaluated by that shell; leaving it unset keeps prek's direct argv execution.

`prek auto-update` can now filter tag candidates before choosing an update.
Both options take glob patterns: use `--include-tag` to only consider matching
tag names, and `--exclude-tag` to skip matching tags such as moving tags or
prereleases.

##### Enhancements

- Add `auto-update --exclude-repo <repo>` to skip repos ([#&#8203;1983](j178/prek#1983))
- Add `auto-update --exit-code` to exit with non-zero on updates ([#&#8203;2002](j178/prek#2002))
- Add `auto-update --include-tag <pattern>`/`--exclude-tag <pattern>` to filter tags ([#&#8203;1984](j178/prek#1984))
- Adds an explicit `shell` hook option for entries that should run as shell source ([#&#8203;2004](j178/prek#2004))
- Make `--hook-dir` optional for hook-impl ([#&#8203;1989](j178/prek#1989))
- Skip shim warning when `--script-version` is missing ([#&#8203;1990](j178/prek#1990))

##### Bug fixes

- Install Ruby executable in gem bin ([#&#8203;2017](j178/prek#2017))
- Use dedicated Android npm package ([#&#8203;1982](j178/prek#1982))
- Use stable repo keys without breaking cached clones ([#&#8203;1995](j178/prek#1995))

##### Documentation

- Explain prek name ([#&#8203;1980](j178/prek#1980))
- Clarify `pass_filenames` concurrency docs ([#&#8203;1999](j178/prek#1999))
- Reorganize documentation references ([#&#8203;2005](j178/prek#2005))
- Clarify hook author manifest env docs ([#&#8203;1991](j178/prek#1991))
- docs: add Sentry to users list ([#&#8203;1981](j178/prek#1981))

[Compare Source](j178/prek@v0.3.9...v0.3.10)

Released on 2026-04-21.

##### Enhancements

- Disallow rev for non-remote repos in schema ([#&#8203;1964](j178/prek#1964))
- Hide up-to-date output in non-verbose mode ([#&#8203;1942](j178/prek#1942))
- Improve merge conflict marker detection ([#&#8203;1937](j178/prek#1937))
- Keep finished hooks visible ([#&#8203;1967](j178/prek#1967))
- Preserve frozen comment spacing in auto-update ([#&#8203;1945](j178/prek#1945))
- Reimplement `@j178/prek` npm package ([#&#8203;1973](j178/prek#1973))

##### Bug fixes

- Prefer stable Rust toolchains ([#&#8203;1974](j178/prek#1974))

##### Documentation

- Add `SKILL.md` for prek ([#&#8203;1950](j178/prek#1950))

### [`v0.3.9`](https://github.com/j178/prek/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#039)

[Compare Source](j178/prek@v0.3.8...v0.3.9)

Released on 2026-04-13.

##### Highlight

`prek auto-update` is now stricter about pinned revisions and more useful in CI.
It now keeps `rev` and `# frozen:` comments in sync, can detect
[impostor commits](https://docs.zizmor.sh/audits/#impostor-commit) when validating pinned SHAs,
and lets you use `prek auto-update --check` to fail on both available updates and frozen-ref
mismatches without rewriting the config.

Examples:

```console
$ prek auto-update

# updates revs and repairs stale `# frozen:` comments

$ prek auto-update --freeze

# writes frozen SHAs with matching `# frozen: <tag>` comments

$ prek auto-update --check

# exits non-zero when updates are available, a `# frozen:` comment is stale,
# or a pinned SHA does not belong to the fetched upstream refs
```

##### Enhancements

- Check and sync frozen comments during auto-update ([#&#8203;1896](j178/prek#1896))
- Handle impostor commits in auto-update ([#&#8203;1919](j178/prek#1919))
- Add experimental `language: dotnet` support ([#&#8203;1871](j178/prek#1871))
- Honor repo and worktree `core.hooksPath` ([#&#8203;1892](j178/prek#1892))
- Add `prek run --no-fail-fast` to override config file ([#&#8203;1859](j178/prek#1859))
- Add `forbid-new-submodules` as builtin hook ([#&#8203;1853](j178/prek#1853))
- Clean stale patch files in `cache gc` ([#&#8203;1877](j178/prek#1877))
- Display auto-update results by config entry ([#&#8203;1922](j178/prek#1922))
- Restrict patch directory permissions ([#&#8203;1876](j178/prek#1876))
- Show tag names in `auto-update --freeze` output ([#&#8203;1916](j178/prek#1916))
- Use a bitset for hook stages ([#&#8203;1860](j178/prek#1860))

##### Bug fixes

- Canonicalize CWD and GIT\_ROOT paths ([#&#8203;1878](j178/prek#1878))
- Ensure quotes are added for non-string revisions in `auto-update` ([#&#8203;1936](j178/prek#1936))

##### Documentation

- Update docs for case of hooks modifying files with a non-zero exit code ([#&#8203;1879](j178/prek#1879))

### [`v0.3.2`](https://github.com/j178/prek/blob/HEAD/CHANGELOG.md#032)

[Compare Source](j178/prek@v0.3.1...v0.3.2)

Released on 2026-02-06.

##### Highlights

- **`prek.toml` is here!**

  You can now use `prek.toml` as an alternative to `.pre-commit-config.yaml` for configuring prek. `prek.toml` mirrors the structure of `.pre-commit-config.yaml`, but TOML is less error-prone. Your existing `.pre-commit-config.yaml` will continue to work, but for new users and new projects, `prek.toml` may make more sense. If you want to switch, run `prek util yaml-to-toml` to convert YAML configs to `prek.toml`. See [configuration docs](configuration.md) for details.

  For example, this config:

  ```yaml
  repos:
    - repo: https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks
      rev: v6.0.0
      hooks:
        - id: check-yaml
  ```

  Can be written as `prek.toml` like this:

  ```toml
  [[repos]]
  repo = "https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit-hooks"
  rev = "v6.0.0"
  hooks = [ { id = "check-yaml" } ]
  ```

- **`serde-yaml` has been replaced with `serde-saphyr`**

  We replaced the long-deprecated `serde-yaml` crate with [`serde-saphyr`](https://crates.io/crates/serde-saphyr) for YAML parsing. It is written in safe Rust and has better error messages, performance, and security. This lets us provide precise location information for configuration parsing errors, which should make it easier to fix config issues.

  For example, this invalid config:

  ```yaml
  repos:
    - repo: https://github.com/crate-ci/typos
      hooks:
        - id: typos
  ```

  Before:

  ```console
  $ prek run
  error: Failed to parse `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
    caused by: Invalid remote repo: missing field `rev`
  ```

  Now:

  ```console
  $ prek run
  error: Failed to parse `.pre-commit-config.yaml`
  caused by: error: line 2 column 5: missing field `rev` at line 2, column 5
  --> <input>:2:5
    |
  1 | repos:
  2 |   - repo: https://github.com/crate-ci/typos
    |     ^ missing field `rev` at line 2, column 5
  3 |     hooks:
  4 |       - id: typos
    |
  ```

- **`prek util` subcommands**

  We added a new `prek util` top-level command for miscellaneous utilities that don't fit into other categories. The first two utilities are:

  - `prek util identify`: shows the identification tags of files that prek uses for file filtering, which can be useful for debugging and writing `types/types_or/exclude_types` filters.
  - `prek util yaml-to-toml`: converts `.pre-commit-config.yaml` to `prek.toml`.

  We also moved `prek init-template-dir` under `prek util` for better organization. The old `prek init-template-dir` command is still available (hidden) as an alias for backward compatibility.

##### Enhancements

- Add `prek util identify` subcommand ([#&#8203;1554](j178/prek#1554))
