Pre Commit Git hook that will remove file from commit if it contains "// warn-before-commit" string

pre-commit

#!/bin/bash

top_level_path="$(git rev-parse --show-toplevel)";

while read file_name; do
  if grep -q "// warn-before-commit" "$top_level_path/$file_name"; then
    git reset $file_name;
    echo "File $file_name, was not commited because 'warn-before-commit' string was found."
  fi
done < <(git diff --cached --name-only --diff-filter=ACM)

Does this actually work for you? The files I reset still somehow get added to my commit. If I add --soft or git restore --staged it completely deletes the changes.

Hey, it used to work without a problem when I created it, but haven't used this in 2y for sure, so not sure if something changed around hooks potentially
