do you use ny git commit hooks?

[jdfa]

Yes, I do. It is pre-commit hook which validates that I am not committing TODO comments.
But it should pass that specific commit.

[extrawurst]

Can you share the path of the hook and the content of the script? also tell me if you use core.hooksPath and if so how it is configured

[jdfa]

I am not using hooksPath setting. Hook itself is located inside .git folder, path: repoRoot/.git/hooks/pre-commit.
Hook itself is redirecting to powershell script, located in common folder:

#!/bin/sh

echo
exec powershell.exe -NoProfile -ExecutionPolicy Bypass -File 'D:\ps\hook.ps1'
exit

Just to be complete, here is content of hook.ps1:

if((git diff --cached) -like "*TODO*"){
    Write-Output "TODO is present in pending changes, commit rejected"
    exit 1
}

It works fine with git command, also handled properly with VisualStudio Git integration.

that is an interesting setup. that's likely to be the problem. I have no test for such thing

@extrawurst I repro'd this using 0.22.1 but its fine in master head. I think it was fixed by #1532,

[extrawurst]

Let’s see after next release then

@extrawurst - ignore that last message, bug seems to be back (I'm probably trying to do too many thigns at once!)
