[asdf-devel] tab-blocking commit hook

The attached script should prevent tabs in *.asd, *.lisp, or *.script files from being committed to a git repository. Existing tabs will not be affected, unless they appear in (the context of) another modification.

Here's an example stopped commit. "" Error: This git repository disallows the #\Tab character in lisp files. Only spaces should be used for indenting lisp code. In emacs, 'M-x untabify' and (setq indent-tabs-mode nil) may help.

First offending file and lines: test.asd + this is a tab ""

To install, simply copy this script to .git/hooks/pre-commit and set the executable bit.

It might also be good to put a copy somewhere permanent so others can install it to their local repositories.
