--no-verify can bypass pre-commit hook? Then how to bypass post-commit hook?

Usually I want post-commit take effect. However, in the middle of
git-rebase, i want to bypass post-commit when 'git-commit --amend'
since my post-commit hooks will modify the working directory and so
make following rebase troubesome.

There does not seem to be an option to do it, but you can always temporarily
disable it (unset the executable permission on it).

By the way, what is your post-commit hook doing anyway? Modifying the work
tree *after* a commit does not sound like a common thing to do.

I have already considered disabling hook temporarily, but it is a
little annoying.

Well, I guess noone thought it would be useful to disable it.

I use post-commit because i don't find a better way to update imported
css version automatically

$ cat foo.css
@import url(bar.css?57e708)
...

When i modify bar.css and then commit it ( with blob sha1 bf7059)，I
use post-commit to modify foo.css
$ cat foo.css
@import url(bar.css?bf7059)
...

But that file is not versioned, is it?

Because if it is, you want to commit it in the very same commit as bar.css
and therefore want to do it in the *pre*-commit hook. Since obviously the
foo.css wants to include the current version of bar.css, not the previous
one.

Note, that while you don't know the commit sha1 before the commit, you do
know the *blob* sha1s. So you can do this change in pre-commit hook.
