cannot commit anything due to this error: `unknown revision or path not in the working tree.`

Context Please describe your issue and provide some context:

• Terminal or GUI client: bash, VSCode default git extension
• If applicable, content of the failing hook: when I try to commit it fails. NOTE: it was working for the past few day but suddenly stopped working
• If possible, minimal steps to reproduce the issue: Not sure if I can comply with this one but I'll provide as much context as I can:

Here you can see my pre-commit file: Nothing out of ordinary.

And here is the issue:

$ git add .
$ git commit -m "chore: convert shared to a library"
fatal: ambiguous argument '': unknown revision or path not in the working tree.
Use '--' to separate paths from revisions, like this:
'git <command> [<revision>...] -- [<file>...]'
Running actionlint against github workflows...
Running lint-staged...
husky - pre-commit hook exited with code 1 (error)

Does not matter if I use VSCode extension or terminal, either way it is failing.

Environment configurations and versions:

• husky: 9.0.11
• OS: Linux kasir-lifebooke736 6.1.80-1-MANJARO #1 SMP PREEMPT_DYNAMIC Fri Mar 1 18:09:53 UTC 2024 x86_64 GNU/Linux
• Monorepo: true, configured and managed by Nx
• Node: v20.10.0
• package manager: npm
• npm version: 10.4.0

Thank you!

OK, let me explain what I was doing wrong:

1. I was using an env which was not defined at all :sweat_smile: ($DICTIONARY)
2. In my lint-staged conf file I was removing ignored files but in one of my .eslintrc.json files I was extending from an eslintrc conf file that did not exists (more accurately speaking the path was wrong)

./lint-staged.config.js: ./packages/shared/.eslintrc.json: So as you might have already guessed it I should have used "extends": ["../../.eslintrc.json"], instead of "extends": ["../.eslintrc.json"],. I was refactoring my code and forgot to fix these kind of confs
