Exam AZ-400 topic 5 question 35 discussion

It should be Git hook not webhook.

I agree with vLabs. The option should have been Git hooks. https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Hooks The pre-rebase hook runs before you rebase anything and can halt the process by exiting non-zero. You can use this hook to disallow rebasing any commits that have already been pushed. The example pre-rebase hook that Git installs does this, although it makes some assumptions that may not match with your workflow.

I think there is a MAJOR misunderstanding here. Web hooks are server side and are not designed to intercept that kind of client side events just to run "scripts". The answer should have been a Git Hook, there is a pre-rebase event and you attach any script (powershell works well when all your clients are on windows, or whatever you want). I wonder how it is possible that there is such a mistake in a question here...

Triggering the webhook will not prevent the rebase from running. The webhook can be configured to trigger a PowerShell script to run before the rebase operation takes place, but the rebase itself will still happen normally. The PowerShell script can be used to perform specific actions before or after the rebase, such as performing additional checks or updates.

The answer that makes most sense is C, but webhooks only makes Github perform a custom HTTP request to your server whenever a configured event happens. You can then in your server execute a Powershell script, but there is no way to guarantee it will execute before the rebase because as far as I know Github won't wait for the Powershell script to end execution because all Github does about it is to send the custom HTTP request. I don't know if Github waits for a response from the server after sending the request before proceeding, but if it isn't the case then it's impossible. Besides, I don't think there is a webhook for rebase events since rebases are made locally. You can configure a webhook for a push event, but not for rebase, that doesn't make sense.

Seems Webhook correct Source: https://docs.github.com/en/webhooks-and-events/webhooks/about-webhooks

Webhook is correct.
