Commit Message Hook Script

Commit Message Hook

#!/bin/sh
msg=`head -n 1 $1`


if echo $msg | egrep -qv '(Android-\d{3,4}.{20,})'; then
  echo "[Message Format] Your message is not formatted correctly. Correct message format\n 
    #Ticket Number - Minimum 20 or more Character \n 
    like #Android-123 Bug fixed for login issue"
  exit 1;
fi

hey sir,just wanna to ask a quick question

This is my commit message
git commit -m "#Android-2345 I sure this is more than 25 characters,but this validation is still cannot pass with error"

but seem like the validation is always failed even though I make a correct commit message format.

my commit-msg file in .git->hooks is exactly the same with script above..

Do u mind to tell me what I missing out??

Did you remove the .sample extension from the commit-msg file?

yup..I removed the .sample extension ady..now the hook file is only commit-msg

End up I have the script like this :

#!/bin/sh
if ! grep -E 'Android-[0-9]{3,4}.{20,}' "$1"; then
  printf "[Message Format] Your message is not formatted correctly. Correct message format: 
    #Ticket Number - Minimum 20 or more Character 
    like #Android-123 Bug fixed for login issue\n"
  exit 1;
fi

not sure is this work,but it done exactly same operation u mention in the tutorial

Its mean commit hook is working but logic has some issue. Can you try to add simple validation As a minimum 5 characters required?

ok let me try it later and get back to you
