Hi Phillip, nice to see you here :-)
Interesting case, since I have tested this on VScode on Mac when rewriting the commit-msg hook recently (ced7bdec8b941785e7815f2bcaee6b1121efd33d and #157).
I think this might be related to WSL + Remote extension - I've never used those. My gut reaction is the root-cause is probably related to either:
--ignore-stdin
. You mentioned having already tried this, but I'd like to double check whether gitlint actually did it right. Can you try enabling debug by adding both --ignore-stdin
as well as --debug
to the gitlint invocation in the .git/hooks/commit-msg
hook (line 22) and then posting output here?Thanks!
Hi Joris π . Glad I can finally try out gitlint ... If I get the hang of it I might introduce it at work.
Verified that it was running with the correct arguments using ps ax
(since I have to kill it), this is the complete command
/usr/bin/python3 /usr/bin/gitlint --staged --ignore-stdin --debug --msg-filename .git/COMMIT_EDITMSG run-hook
This is the output from the git log in VSCode

gitlint: Your commit message contains the above violations.
Continue with commit anyways (this keeps the current commit message)? [y(es)/n(no)/e(dit)] .git/hooks/commit-msg: line 22: 16948 Terminated gitlint --staged --ignore-stdin --debug --msg-filename "$1" run-hook

I've been looking at the code and it seems like the --ignore-stdin isn't checked here: https://github.com/jorisroovers/gitlint/blob/main/gitlint/cli.py#L371
I tried hard-coding value
to "n" and then VSCode immediately fails the commit message (as expected). I'm not sure if you intended on handling the --ignore-stdin elsewhere ?
I can try to make a pull request but I'm not exactly a seasoned Python developer π
Ok, most obvious question first (just so we can rule it out): did you actually try to answer the question (y/n/e), or is the prompt not interactive at all?
Secondly, I think our focus on the --ignore-stdin
might be taking us in the wrong direction, although the confusion is understandable.
We're conflating gitlint's --ignore-stdin
general option with enabling/disabling the interactive gitlint commit-msg hook prompt. Those are 2 different things, although both have to do with stdin and TTYs.
Consider these examples of --ignore-stdin
:
# This will lint "foobar" as a commit message, using the interactive hook
# Because the stdin = pipe (i.e. not interactive), this will abort immediately after the first user-prompt
echo "foobar" | gitlint run-hook
# This will force gitlint to ignore the piped input "foobar", and just lint the last commit message
# Note however that because stdin = (pipe i.e. not interactive), gitlint will still abort after the first user-prompt
# We might debate whether this is expected behavior
echo "foobar" | gitlint --ignore-stdin run-hook
Normally, Python's input()
is what causes the abort to happen if stdin is non-interactive. But clearly that's not happening in your case (i.e. why I asked whether it's definitely not possible to just answer y/n/e on the prompt in VSCode).
https://github.com/jorisroovers/gitlint/blob/e06dfe02c222b1d4807c17b9c534d7deeed7a8e6/gitlint/cli.py#L386
Ideally, we should be able to detect this scenario reliably, but from experience I know that introducing a 'force ignore' option is not a bad idea so we always have a work-around. However, if we do this, I think it should be an option specific to run-hook
and not re-use the generic --ignore-stdin
option that already has a different meaning. Something like --non-interactive
:
# Note that `--non-interactive` is specified *after* `run-hook`, and not before like `--ignore-stdin`
gitlint run-hook --non-interactive
# This will still work and lint "foobar", but the hook will be forced to be non-interactive
echo "foobar" | gitlint run-hook --non-interactive
--non-interactive
could then also be set using a .gitlint
option hook-non-interactive=True
and env var GITLINT_HOOK_NON_INTERACTIVE=1
.
Of course, because it's a force flagm it means the hook will always be non-interactive, even when you invoke it from a regular CLI.
PS: christmas time π , so delayed responses are very likely. I suggest not spending/wasting too much time on PRs on this until we've figured out the approach first. Thanks for your help!
@jorisroovers
I want to introduce gitlint at work project. I'm going to insert checks in CI pipeline and pre-commit hook.
There is an option to skip checks in pre-commit hook: Continue with commit anyways (this keeps the current commit message)? [y(es)/n(no)/e(dit)]
If I continue I will break the CI.
It seems, that new --non-interactive
option that you have described is great solution. Any plans to implement this feature?
I suggest not spending/wasting too much time on PRs on this until we've figured out the approach first.
Did you figure out is this approach is good enough? In this case I can try to send a PR for this feature.
I came up with custom commit-msg
git hook like this
gitlint --msg-filename $1
In a non-interactive git environment (like Visual Studio Code), the git hook hangs while waiting for input from the user.
I've installed gitlint v0.15.0 on OpenSuse in WSL and added it to my repo using install-hook with a default config file using generate-config. However, if I want to commit in Visual Studio Code (using the Remote - WSL extension), the commit process hangs if there's something wrong with my commit message. The only way to proceed is by killing the script
The output
I hoped that adding --silent and --ignore-stdin to the commit hook would help but unfortunately it did not.
