I am getting an error when I run the pre-commit hook.

ERROR: cannot find role in /var/folders/7f/d72l2g9x2g57tt5kpygfgd5rxsmw_c/T/tmpEe0oQQ/roles/git+ssh:/git@github.umn.edu:ansible-roles/bashrc.git or /var/folders/7f/d72l2g9x2g57tt5kpygfgd5rxsmw_c/T/tmpEe0oQQ/git+ssh:/git@github.umn.edu:ansible-roles/bashrc.git or /Users/debbieg/devel/asr_ansible/roles/git+ssh:/git@github.umn.edu:ansible-roles/bashrc.git

The problem is a dependency I declared that looks like the following:

dependencies:
  - { role: 'git+ssh://git@github.umn.edu:ansible-roles/bashrc.git' }

The hook does understand how to handle dependencies that are pointing to a specific git repository.
