Config with prepare-commit-msg blocks squashing via interactive rebase

[kceb]

Hello, first off thanks for making this wonderful library.

I'm currently using husky to enforce commitizen on every commit. It's been working fine, however, there are times when I need to manually squash certain commits. To do this, I use an interactive rebase (ex: git rebase -i HEAD~4). Whenever I do this it gets stuck and the rebase has to abort.

I've tried the following solution:

#!/bin/sh
BRANCH_NAME=$(git branch | grep '*' | sed 's/* //')

if [ $BRANCH_NAME != '(no branch)' ]
then
  exec < /dev/tty && git-cz --hook || true
fi

However, it doesn't work, I presume, when in the squashing step. It just freezes.

I've also had trouble running yarn version --no-commit-hooks and yarn config set version-commit-hooks false, which also freezes

Any idea on how to get around this?

Update: for husky v2.4.0 and above, it seems like you can use HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git rebase .... I'll go this route for now, however, I'll leave the issue open in case there's a better alternative for those not using husky

I have the similar trouble at #672 . Why git-cz throws such a silly error?

If your project is based on node.js, then you can consider using husky.

git your-command # hooks will be executed by husky

HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git your-command # Husky will skip hooks
