Yesterday, I committed a broken test.  Being the person who always encourages (nags) people to always run the tests before committing them, it was particularly embarrasing to find.

I did some digging around, and found that git committers can setup their own pre-commit hooks, so I wrote one that runs only the 00_compile.t test before allowing me to commit.  00_compile.t runs very quickly.

Git stores hooks in the .git directory for the repo, so you would add this file to as .git/hooks/pre-commit.

You'll need to modify it to point to some valid WebGUI configuration file.  The test does no database writes, so any configuration file will work.
