Namespace custom set of notes

Vote count:

0

I'm trying to create a simple git extension for creating and pushing a custom set of git notes.

I'm wondering if there's any prior work I could use/emulate, or if anyone has thoughts on how to:

• Create special notes under a custom namespace (temp overriding GIT_NOTES_REF?)


• Only view notes from that namespace (temp overriding GIT_NOTES_DISPLAY_REF?)


• Preventing these notes from being displayed under the git log (not 100% sure if I want this behaviour, but curious about it. Would git log even pick up notes placed under a custom GIT_NOTES_REF?)


• Forcing these special notes to always be pushed (not sure if possible without a hook?)

This is an area of git plumbing I have no experience with! Any help or wisdom is appreciated.
