How to make Husky run git hook?
How to make Husky run git hook? I have a working git hook, prepare-commit-message, but the moment Husky was installed, the hook stopped working.
Not finding much luck, I then tried to make it a "Husky git hook" and run it like that, so I installed it via npx husky add prepare-commit-message content, but this did not help.
Summary of the situation:
- git hook on it's own - works
- two other husky git hooks - work on their own (pre-commit, pre-push)
-
git config -eand hooksPath set as.husky - my script as a husky hook, installed like above - makes commit-related two Husky hooks no longer work.
git commitnever happens, instead pre-commit hook fails with a message that
.husky/pre-commit: 2: .: cannot open .husky/husky.sh: No such file
or, if I move pre-commit one out:
.husky/prepare-commit-msg: 8: .: cannot open .husky/_/husky.sh: No such file
However, interestingly, if I REMOVE the config bit about .husky dir, git commit opens normally, but without what I'd expect from prepare-commit-message.
At this point I'm kind of stumped, so any help is welcome.

Breakthrough, I found it, mere minutes after posting here. A workaround more than an answer, but it gets the script working.
- Reading up on
husky.shI decided that I don't have it and I don't want it (need to push the work forward). How did this work before though? Why could I push, commit, see Husky's messages? - So, I have a workaround! A) Comment out the line
. "$(dirname -- "$0")/_/husky.sh". B) Add the same script to.git/hooks.
Made it run now with those two steps. And I'm now thinking that perhaps I botched Husky install somehow. Will probably reinstall and see then, but for now, have spent already hours on it, so need to do something. :-)
I'm still looking for better answers, or comments.
