+.SH NAME
+\fBlive\-build\fR \- Live System Build Components
+
+.SH SYNOPSIS
+\fBlb source\-hooks\fR [\-\-verbose]
+.PP
+\fBlb source\-hooks\fR [\-\-help]
+.br
+\fBlb source\-hooks\fR [\-\-version]
+.
+.SH DESCRIPTION
+live\-build contains the components to build a live system from a configuration directory.
+.PP
+The \fBlb source\-hooks\fR command executes hook files after the source stage.
+
+.SH SPECIFICATION
+\fBlb source\-hooks\fR executes any hook files found in the \fBconfig/hooks\fR directory within the configuration directory.
+.PP
+Hook files do not require to have a specific owner nor specific permissions. They are marked executable by \fBlb source\-hooks\fR automatically when they are executed.
+.PP
+Hook files must either have the suffix \fB*.hook\fR or \fB*.hook.source\fR.
+.PP
+Hook files with the suffix \fB*.hook\fR are executed first, hook files with the suffix \fB*.hook.source\fR are executed second.
+.PP
+Hook files are executed in alphanumberical order by \fBlb source\-hooks\fR. If one hook file depends on being run after another, best practise is to use number prefixes (nnnn, starting with 0001) to ensure the order of execution.
+.PP
+Hook files are copied into the \fBsource/live-build\fR directory by \fBlb source\-hooks\fR. They are executed from within the source directory and can read the configuration directory in \fBlive-build/config\fR within the source directory.
+.PP
+\fBWarning:\fR hook files are not executed within a chroot but within the context of the host system in the source directory. They have root privileges and access to the all host system ressources (devices, filesystems, network, etc.).
