+A little trick to force you to run your tests before a commit:
+
+in a repositorie, create the following file *.git/hooks/pre-commit* with this content:
+
+{% highlight bash %}
+#!/bin/sh
+if [ -d t ]; then
+    res=`prove t`
+    if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
+    echo "tests fails"
+    exit 1
+    fi
+fi
+if [ -d xt ]; then
+    res=`prove xt`
+    if [ $? -gt 0 ]; then
+    echo "tests fails"
+    exit 1
+    fi
+fi
+{% endhighlight %}
+
+and don't forget to chmod with +x.
+
+Now, when you will do your next commit, your test suit will be executed. If the tests fails, the commit will be rejected.
