I think this is a Windows/WSL/Linux issue. anyone able to assist as when i install pre-commit and try to commit i get the error:
> git -c user.useConfigOnly=true commit --quiet --allow-empty-message --file -
error: cannot spawn .git/hooks/pre-commit: No such file or directory
all software and actions are taken on wsl2
or vscode terminal (which connects to wsl)
git clone
(I can commit, branch etc fine from vscode)pre-commit run -a
runs succesfullypre-commit install
(says setup is successful)python3
is installed and working onwsl
looking in the .git
i can see the hooks folder and the pre-commit file which is below:
#!/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/pre-commit/libexec/bin/python3
# File generated by pre-commit: https://pre-commit.com
# ID: 138fd403232d2ddd5efb44317e38bf03
import os
import sys
# we try our best, but the shebang of this script is difficult to determine:
# - macos doesn't ship with python3
# - windows executables are almost always `python.exe`
# therefore we continue to support python2 for this small script
if sys.version_info < (3, 3):
from distutils.spawn import find_executable as which
else:
from shutil import which
# work around https://github.com/Homebrew/homebrew-core/issues/30445
os.environ.pop('__PYVENV_LAUNCHER__', None)
# start templated
INSTALL_PYTHON = '/home/linuxbrew/.linuxbrew/opt/pre-commit/libexec/bin/python3'
ARGS = ['hook-impl', '--config=.pre-commit-config.yaml', '--hook-type=pre-commit']
# end templated
ARGS.extend(('--hook-dir', os.path.realpath(os.path.dirname(__file__))))
ARGS.append('--')
ARGS.extend(sys.argv[1:])
DNE = '`pre-commit` not found. Did you forget to activate your virtualenv?'
if os.access(INSTALL_PYTHON, os.X_OK):
CMD = [INSTALL_PYTHON, '-mpre_commit']
elif which('pre-commit'):
CMD = ['pre-commit']
else:
raise SystemExit(DNE)
CMD.extend(ARGS)
if sys.platform == 'win32': # https://bugs.python.org/issue19124
import subprocess
if sys.version_info < (3, 7): # https://bugs.python.org/issue25942
raise SystemExit(subprocess.Popen(CMD).wait())
else:
raise SystemExit(subprocess.call(CMD))
else:
os.execvp(CMD[0], CMD)
UPDATE
Its a VSCode issue.. doing a manual vscode commit uses windows git and so looks for python3 in windows. If i use the wsl terminal and run the git commands they work and use pre-commit
Guess my question is, is there a way to use vscode git with wsl or does it have to use windows?
