This video tutorial covers the integration of Git hooks into a Node.js application, focusing on commit message verification using Commit Lint. It guides through the installation and configuration of Commit Lint, ensuring commit messages include specific issue references. The tutorial also demonstrates testing commit messages and addresses a security vulnerability in dependencies. The setup aims to create a production-ready environment with tools like ESLint, Husky, and Lint Staged.
