Git pre-push hook to locally reject pushing branches containing 'local/'

pre-push

#!/bin/sh

# Called by "git push" after it has checked the remote status,
# but before anything has been pushed.
#
# If this script exits with a non-zero status nothing will be pushed.
#
# Steps to install, from the root directory of your repo...
# 1. Copy the file into your repo at `.git/hooks/pre-push`
# 2. Set executable permissions, run `chmod +x .git/hooks/pre-push`
# 3. Or, use `rake hooks:pre_push` to install
#
# Local branch push disabler.
# branches starting with 'local/' won't be pushed.
# This hook is useful to prevent accidentaly pushing local branches that
# you may create for testing purposes.
