Azure devops - server-side git hooks

How can we implement server-side hooks, or any similar solution, to restrict git push into git server?

For example, we want to disable push of commits containing *.class files.

I use this solution, that work properly and automatically for all users.

A combination of local git hooks and Pre-Build events in the csproj that check if there is a pre-commit hook in the .git\hooks and if not, copy it from hooks folder that placed in the repo

Implementation:

In my repo there is hooks folder that contains 2 files:

  1. setup-hooks.bat
  2. pre-commit

the setup-hooks:

@echo off

echo Current location is: %cd%

:: Check if the .git/hooks directory exists
if not exist .git\hooks mkdir .git\hooks

:: Copy your hook scripts to the .git/hooks directory
copy hooks\pre-commit .git\hooks\pre-commit

echo Git hooks have been set up.

In the pre build event, I called to the setup-hooks.bat: enter image description here

This can be achieved with a branch policy with a path filter on it. You could add a build pipeline with some powershell that returns a failed exit code.

Use branch policies and set merge only with PR, after that direct push to the branch will be disabled, you can skip these policies for certain users (build users or admins) enter image description here

What I do is using build option together with policies in Azure DevOps. This is my azure-pipelines.yml file:

---
trigger:
  branches:
    exclude:
      - '*'

pool:
  vmImage: 'ubuntu-latest'

steps:
  - script: sudo apt-get install python3-pip
    displayName: 'Install Python PIP'

  - script: sudo apt-get install python3-setuptools
    condition: succeeded()
    displayName: Install Python SetupTools

  - script: sudo pip3 install -r requirements.txt
    condition: succeeded()
    displayName: Install Python PIP Packages

  - task: PythonScript@0
    inputs:
      scriptSource: filePath
      scriptPath: hooks/lint_checker.py
      pythonInterpreter: python3
    condition: succeeded()
    displayName: Lint Checker

I don't think Azure DevOps uses hooks.

You can use Branch Policies to make use of an external validation service (as I understand it this uses web hooks).

Additional: the status of this User Voice request indicates the above is the official answer.

But maybe the simple case would be .gitignore and code reviews?
