 ## What happens when I switch branches
-If files were added or removed in the new checkout you will most likely need to run `xcodegen` again so that your project will reference all your files. Unfortunately this is a manual step at the moment, but in the future this could be automated.
-
-For now you can always add xcodegen as a git `post-checkout` hook.
-It's recommended to use `--use-cache` so that the project is not needlessly generated.
+If files were added or removed in the new checkout you will most likely need to run `xcodegen` again so that your project will reference all your files.
+
+It's recommended to set up some [git hooks](https://git-scm.com/book/en/v2/Customizing-Git-Git-Hooks) to automate the process:
+- run `xcodegen generate --use-cache` on the following hooks. This will make sure the project is up to date when checking out, merging and rebasing
+  - post-checkout
+  - post-rewrite
+  - post-merge
+- run `xcodegen cache` on `post-commit`. This will make sure that when switching branches the cache will be updated in case you made local changes, or are ammending a commit that added a new file.
 
 ## Can I use CocoaPods
 Yes, you will just need to run `pod install` after the project is generated to integrate Cocoapods changes.
