- # Commit Message Hook
2
-
3
- This template provides guidance for implementing commit-msg git hooks that enforce commit message standards and conventions.
4
-
5
- ## Purpose
6
-
7
- Commit-msg hooks run after commit message is entered to:
8
- - Enforce conventional commit format
9
- - Validate commit message structure
10
- - Ensure clear, actionable commit messages
11
- - Maintain consistent commit history
12
- - Enable automated changelog generation
13
-
14
- ## Agent Automation Commands
15
-
16
- When implementing or modifying commit-msg hooks, use these patterns:
17
-
18
- ### Standard Commit Format
19
- ```bash
20
- # Conventional Commits format
21
- git commit -m "feat: add user authentication"
22
- git commit -m "fix: resolve memory leak in parser"
23
- git commit -m "docs: update API documentation"
24
-
25
- # With scope
26
- git commit -m "feat(auth): add JWT token validation"
27
- git commit -m "fix(api): handle null responses gracefully"
28
-
29
- # With breaking change
30
- git commit -m "feat!: redesign API endpoints" -m "BREAKING CHANGE: API v1 endpoints removed"
31
-
32
- # Skip validation (emergency only)
33
- git commit --no-verify -m "WIP: work in progress"
34
- ```
35
-
36
- ## Conventional Commits Format
37
-
38
- ### Structure
39
- ```
40
- <type>(<scope>): <subject>
41
-
42
- <body>
43
-
44
- <footer>
45
- ```
46
-

73
- - Detailed explanation
74

114
- ❌ "Fixed stuff" # No type, unclear
115
- ❌ "feat: Added new feature." # Period at end, "Added" not imperative
116
- ❌ "WIP" # No type, not descriptive
117
- ❌ "Update files" # No type, too vague
118
- ```
119
-
120
- ## Hook Implementation Patterns
121
-
122
- ### Node.js Implementation (Recommended)
123
-
124
- **Shell Wrapper** (`.git/hooks/commit-msg`):
125
- ```bash
126
- #!/bin/sh
127
-
128
- # Find Node.js executable (cross-platform)
129
- NODE_PATH=""
130
- if command -v node >/dev/null 2>&1; then
131
- NODE_PATH="node"
132
- elif [ -f "/c/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe" ]; then
133
- NODE_PATH="/c/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe"
134
- elif [ -f "/usr/bin/node" ]; then
135
- NODE_PATH="/usr/bin/node"
136
- else
137
- echo "Error: Node.js not found"
138
- exit 1
139
- fi
140
-
141
- # Execute Node.js script with commit message file path
142
- "$NODE_PATH" "$(dirname "$0")/commit-msg.js" "$1"
143
- exit $?
144
- ```
145
-
146
- **Node.js Script** (`.git/hooks/commit-msg.js`):
147
- ```javascript
148
- #!/usr/bin/env node
149
-
150
- const fs = require('fs');

- }
264
-
265
- main();
266
- ```
267
-
268
- ### Shell-Only Implementation (Simple)
269
-
270
- **`.git/hooks/commit-msg`**:
271
- ```bash
272
- #!/bin/sh
273
-
274
- # Read commit message
275
- MESSAGE=$(cat "$1")
276
-
277
- # Skip merge commits
278
- if echo "$MESSAGE" | grep -q "^Merge"; then
279
- exit 0
280
- fi
281
-
282
- # Check conventional commit format
283
- if ! echo "$MESSAGE" | grep -qE "^(feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|chore|revert)(\(.+\))?!?: .{1,50}"; then
284
- echo ""
285
- echo "❌ Invalid commit message format!"
286
- echo ""
287
- echo "Expected: <type>(<scope>): <subject>"
288
- echo ""
289
- echo "Valid types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore, revert"
290
- echo ""
291
- echo "Examples:"
292
- echo " feat: add user authentication"
293
- echo " fix(api): resolve null pointer"
294
- echo " docs: update README"
295
- echo ""
296
- exit 1
297
- fi
298
-
299
- echo "✅ Commit message valid"
300
- exit 0
301
- ```
302
-
303
- ## Advanced Validation Rules
304
-
305
- ### Check for Issue References
306
-
307
- ```javascript
308
- function validateIssueReference(message, requiredForTypes = ['feat', 'fix']) {
309
- const lines = message.split('\n');
310
- const subject = lines[0];
311
- const type = subject.match(/^([a-z]+)/)?.[1];
312
-
313
- // Check if issue reference required for this type
314
- if (requiredForTypes.includes(type)) {
315
- const hasIssueRef = /(?:closes|fixes|resolves|refs?) #\d+/i.test(message);
316
-
317
- if (!hasIssueRef) {
318
- return {
319
- valid: false,
320
- errors: [
321
- `Commit type '${type}' requires an issue reference.`,
322
- '',
323
- 'Add to footer:',
324
- ' Closes #123',
325
- ' Fixes #456',
326
- ' Refs #789',
327
- ],
328
- };
329
- }
330
- }
331
-
332
- return { valid: true };
333
- }
334
- ```
335
-
336
- ### Check for Breaking Changes
337
-
338
- ```javascript
339
- function validateBreakingChange(message) {
340
- const hasBreakingIndicator = /^[a-z]+(\(.+\))?!:/.test(message);
341
- const hasBreakingFooter = /BREAKING CHANGE:/m.test(message);
342
-
343
- if (hasBreakingIndicator && !hasBreakingFooter) {
344
- return {
345
- valid: false,
346
- errors: [
347
- 'Breaking change indicator (!) used but no BREAKING CHANGE footer found.',
348
- '',
349
- 'Add to footer:',
350
- ' BREAKING CHANGE: description of what broke',
351
- ],
352
- };
353
- }
354
-
355
- return { valid: true };
356
- }
357
- ```
358
-
359
- ### Check for Co-Authors
360
-
361
- ```javascript
362
- function validateCoAuthors(message) {
363
- const coAuthorLines = message.match(/^Co-authored-by: .+/gm) || [];
364
-
365
- for (const line of coAuthorLines) {
366
- // Validate email format
367
- if (!/^Co-authored-by: .+ <.+@.+\..+>$/.test(line)) {
368
- return {
369
- valid: false,
370
- errors: [
371
- 'Invalid Co-authored-by format.',
372
- '',
373
- 'Expected format:',
374
- ' Co-authored-by: Name <email@example.com>',
375
- '',
376
- `Got: ${line}`,
377
- ],
378
- };
379
- }
380
- }
381
-
382
- return { valid: true };
383
- }
384
- ```
385
-
386
- ## Best Practices
387
-
388
- ### ✅ DO
389
-
390
- 1. **Keep subject line concise** (50 characters or less)
391
- 2. **Use imperative mood** ("add" not "added")
392
- 3. **Reference issues** in footer for feat/fix commits
393
- 4. **Document breaking changes** with BREAKING CHANGE footer
394
- 5. **Add body** for complex changes (explain why, not what)
395
- 6. **Use scopes** for multi-module projects
396
- 7. **Start with lowercase** after colon
397
-
398
- ### ❌ DON'T
399
-
400
- 1. **Don't end subject with period**
401
- 2. **Don't use past tense** ("added" or "adds")
402
- 3. **Don't be vague** ("fix stuff", "update files")
403
- 4. **Don't exceed 72 characters** in subject
404
- 5. **Don't mix multiple changes** in one commit
405
- 6. **Don't forget issue references** for bug fixes
406
- 7. **Don't capitalize** first word after colon
407
-
408
- ## Automated Commit Message Preparation
409
-
410
- Use `prepare-commit-msg` hook to pre-populate message:
411
-
412
- **`.git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg`**:
413
- ```bash
414
- #!/bin/sh
415
-
416
- # Get branch name
417
- BRANCH=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
418
-
419
- # Extract issue number from branch (e.g., feature/123-user-auth)
420
- ISSUE=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '[0-9]+' | head -1)
421
-
422
- # Add issue reference if found
423
- if [ -n "$ISSUE" ]; then
424
- echo "" >> "$1"
425
- echo "Refs #$ISSUE" >> "$1"
426
- fi
427
- ```
428
-
429
- ## Integration with Tools
430
-
431
- ### Commitlint (npm)
432
-
433
- ```bash
434
- # Install
435
- npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
436
-
437
- # Configure
438
- echo "module.exports = {extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional']}" > commitlint.config.js
439
-
440
- # Create hook
441
- echo "npx --no -- commitlint --edit \$1" > .git/hooks/commit-msg
442
- chmod +x .git/hooks/commit-msg
443
- ```
444
-
445
- ### Husky + Commitlint
446
-
447
- ```bash
448
- # Install
449
- npm install --save-dev husky @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
450
-
451
- # Setup husky
452
- npx husky init
453
-
454
- # Add commit-msg hook
455
- npx husky add .husky/commit-msg 'npx --no -- commitlint --edit "$1"'
456
- ```
457
-
458
- ## Troubleshooting
459
-
460
- ### Hook Not Running
461
-
462
- **Solutions**:
463
- 1. Check permissions: `chmod +x .git/hooks/commit-msg`
464
- 2. Verify shebang: `#!/bin/sh`
465
- 3. Check file location: Must be `.git/hooks/commit-msg` (no extension)
466
-
467
- ### False Positives
468
-
469
- **Issue**: Valid messages rejected
470
-
471
- **Solutions**:
472
- 1. Adjust regex pattern for your team's conventions
473
- 2. Add exceptions for specific message patterns
474
- 3. Allow more types if needed (e.g., `wip`, `hotfix`)
475
-
476
- ### Merge Commits Failing
477
-
478
- **Issue**: Merge commit messages rejected
479
-
480
- **Solution**: Skip validation for merge commits:
481
- ```javascript
482
- if (message.startsWith('Merge') || message.startsWith('Revert')) {
483
- process.exit(0);
484
- }
485
- ```
486
-
487
- ## Emergency Bypass
488
-
489
- ```bash
490
- # Skip commit-msg validation
491
- git commit --no-verify -m "Emergency fix"
492
-
493
- # Or use environment variable
494
- HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git commit -m "message"
495
- ```
496
-
497
- ## Integration with Rulebook
498
-
499
- If using `@hivehub/rulebook`, commit-msg hooks are automatically generated:
500
-
501
- ```bash
502
- # Initialize with hooks
503
- npx @hivehub/rulebook init
504
-
505
- # Configuration in .rulebook
506
- {
507
- "hooks": {
508
- "commitMsg": {
509
- "enabled": true,
510
- "enforceConventional": true,
511
- "requireIssueRef": ["feat", "fix"]
512
- }
513
- }
514
- }
515
- ```
516
-
517
- ## Common Pitfalls
518
-
519
- 1. **❌ Too strict validation**: Allow flexibility for trivial commits
520
- 2. **❌ No escape hatch**: Always allow `--no-verify`
521
- 3. **❌ Blocking merge commits**: Skip validation for merge/revert
522
- 4. **❌ Unclear error messages**: Show examples of valid format
523
- 5. **❌ Not documenting conventions**: Add CONTRIBUTING.md with examples

+ # Commit Message Hook
2
+
3
+ This template provides guidance for implementing commit-msg git hooks that enforce commit message standards and conventions.
4
+
5
+ ## Purpose
6
+
7
+ Commit-msg hooks run after commit message is entered to:
8
+ - Enforce conventional commit format
9
+ - Validate commit message structure
10
+ - Ensure clear, actionable commit messages
11
+ - Maintain consistent commit history
12
+ - Enable automated changelog generation
13
+
14
+ ## Agent Automation Commands
15
+
16
+ When implementing or modifying commit-msg hooks, use these patterns:
17
+
18
+ ### Standard Commit Format
19
+ ```bash
20
+ # Conventional Commits format
21
+ git commit -m "feat: add user authentication"
22
+ git commit -m "fix: resolve memory leak in parser"
23
+ git commit -m "docs: update API documentation"
24
+
25
+ # With scope
26
+ git commit -m "feat(auth): add JWT token validation"
27
+ git commit -m "fix(api): handle null responses gracefully"
28
+
29
+ # With breaking change
30
+ git commit -m "feat!: redesign API endpoints" -m "BREAKING CHANGE: API v1 endpoints removed"
31
+
32
+ # Skip validation (emergency only)
33
+ git commit --no-verify -m "WIP: work in progress"
34
+ ```
35
+
36
+ ## Conventional Commits Format
37
+
38
+ ### Structure
39
+ ```
40
+ <type>(<scope>): <subject>
41
+
42
+ <body>
43
+
44
+ <footer>
45
+ ```
46
+
47
+ ### Required Components
48
+
49
+ **Type** (required): Must be one of:
50
+ - `feat`: New feature
51
+ - `fix`: Bug fix
52
+ - `docs`: Documentation only changes
53
+ - `style`: Code style changes (formatting, semicolons, etc.)
54
+ - `refactor`: Code change that neither fixes a bug nor adds a feature
55
+ - `perf`: Performance improvement
56
+ - `test`: Adding or updating tests
57
+ - `build`: Changes to build system or dependencies
58
+ - `ci`: Changes to CI configuration
59
+ - `chore`: Other changes that don't modify src or test files
60
+ - `revert`: Reverts a previous commit
61
+
62
+ **Subject** (required):
63
+ - Brief description (50 chars or less)
64
+ - Lowercase first letter
65
+ - No period at end
66
+ - Imperative mood ("add" not "added" or "adds")
67
+
68
+ **Scope** (optional):
69
+ - Noun describing section of codebase
70
+ - Examples: `api`, `ui`, `auth`, `parser`, `cli`
71
+
72
+ **Body** (optional):
73
+ - Detailed explanation
74
+ - Separate from subject with blank line
75
+ - Wrap at 72 characters
76
+
77
+ **Footer** (optional):
78
+ - Breaking changes: `BREAKING CHANGE: description`
79
+ - Issue references: `Closes #123, #456`
80
+ - Co-authors: `Co-authored-by: Name <email>`
81
+
82
+ ### Examples
83
+
84
+ **Good Commits**:
85
+ ```
86
+ feat(auth): add OAuth2 authentication
87
+
88
+ Implement OAuth2 flow with support for Google and GitHub providers.
89
+ Includes token refresh mechanism and secure storage.
90
+
91
+ Closes #234
92
+ ```
93
+
94
+ ```
95
+ fix: prevent race condition in task queue
96
+
97
+ Add mutex to protect concurrent access to task queue.
98
+ This resolves intermittent task duplication issues.
99
+
100
+ Fixes #567
101
+ ```
102
+
103
+ ```
104
+ docs: add contributing guidelines
105
+
106
+ Create CONTRIBUTING.md with:
107
+ - Code style requirements
108
+ - PR submission process
109
+ - Testing guidelines
110
+ ```
111
+
112
+ **Bad Commits** (will be rejected):
113
+ ```
114
+ ❌ "Fixed stuff" # No type, unclear
115
+ ❌ "feat: Added new feature." # Period at end, "Added" not imperative
116
+ ❌ "WIP" # No type, not descriptive
117
+ ❌ "Update files" # No type, too vague
118
+ ```
119
+
120
+ ## Hook Implementation Patterns
121
+
122
+ ### Node.js Implementation (Recommended)
123
+
124
+ **Shell Wrapper** (`.git/hooks/commit-msg`):
125
+ ```bash
126
+ #!/bin/sh
127
+
128
+ # Find Node.js executable (cross-platform)
129
+ NODE_PATH=""
130
+ if command -v node >/dev/null 2>&1; then
131
+ NODE_PATH="node"
132
+ elif [ -f "/c/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe" ]; then
133
+ NODE_PATH="/c/Program Files/nodejs/node.exe"
134
+ elif [ -f "/usr/bin/node" ]; then
135
+ NODE_PATH="/usr/bin/node"
136
+ else
137
+ echo "Error: Node.js not found"
138
+ exit 1
139
+ fi
140
+
141
+ # Execute Node.js script with commit message file path
142
+ "$NODE_PATH" "$(dirname "$0")/commit-msg.js" "$1"
143
+ exit $?
144
+ ```
145
+
146
+ **Node.js Script** (`.git/hooks/commit-msg.js`):
147
+ ```javascript
148
+ #!/usr/bin/env node
149
+
150
+ const fs = require('fs');
151
+
152

204
+ };
205
+ }
206
+
207

231
+ };
232
+ }
233
+
234
+ return { valid: true };
235
+ }
236
+
237
+ function main() {
238
+ const messageFile = process.argv[2];
239
+
240
+ if (!messageFile) {
241
+ console.error('❌ No commit message file provided');
242
+ process.exit(1);
243
+ }
244
+
245
+ const message = fs.readFileSync(messageFile, 'utf-8').trim();
246
+
247
+ // Skip validation for merge commits, revert commits, etc.
248
+ if (message.startsWith('Merge') || message.startsWith('Revert')) {
249
+ process.exit(0);
250
+ }
251
+
252
+ const result = validateCommitMessage(message);
253

262
+ process.exit(0);
263
+ }
264
+
265
+ main();
266
+ ```
267
+
268
+ ### Shell-Only Implementation (Simple)
269
+
270
+ **`.git/hooks/commit-msg`**:
271
+ ```bash
272
+ #!/bin/sh
273
+
274
+ # Read commit message
275
+ MESSAGE=$(cat "$1")
276
+
277
+ # Skip merge commits
278
+ if echo "$MESSAGE" | grep -q "^Merge"; then
279
+ exit 0
280
+ fi
281
+
282
+ # Check conventional commit format
283
+ if ! echo "$MESSAGE" | grep -qE "^(feat|fix|docs|style|refactor|perf|test|build|ci|chore|revert)(\(.+\))?!?: .{1,50}"; then
284
+ echo ""
285
+ echo "❌ Invalid commit message format!"
286
+ echo ""
287
+ echo "Expected: <type>(<scope>): <subject>"
288
+ echo ""
289
+ echo "Valid types: feat, fix, docs, style, refactor, perf, test, build, ci, chore, revert"
290
+ echo ""
291
+ echo "Examples:"
292
+ echo " feat: add user authentication"
293
+ echo " fix(api): resolve null pointer"
294
+ echo " docs: update README"
295
+ echo ""
296
+ exit 1
297
+ fi
298
+
299
+ echo "✅ Commit message valid"
300
+ exit 0
301
+ ```
302
+
303
+ ## Advanced Validation Rules
304
+
305
+ ### Check for Issue References
306
+
307
+ ```javascript
308
+ function validateIssueReference(message, requiredForTypes = ['feat', 'fix']) {
309
+ const lines = message.split('\n');
310
+ const subject = lines[0];
311
+ const type = subject.match(/^([a-z]+)/)?.[1];
312
+
313
+ // Check if issue reference required for this type
314
+ if (requiredForTypes.includes(type)) {
315
+ const hasIssueRef = /(?:closes|fixes|resolves|refs?) #\d+/i.test(message);
316
+
317
+ if (!hasIssueRef) {
318
+ return {
319
+ valid: false,
320
+ errors: [
321
+ `Commit type '${type}' requires an issue reference.`,
322
+ '',
323
+ 'Add to footer:',
324
+ ' Closes #123',
325
+ ' Fixes #456',
326
+ ' Refs #789',
327
+ ],
328
+ };
329
+ }
330
+ }
331
+
332
+ return { valid: true };
333
+ }
334
+ ```
335
+
336
+ ### Check for Breaking Changes
337
+
338
+ ```javascript
339
+ function validateBreakingChange(message) {
340
+ const hasBreakingIndicator = /^[a-z]+(\(.+\))?!:/.test(message);
341
+ const hasBreakingFooter = /BREAKING CHANGE:/m.test(message);
342
+
343
+ if (hasBreakingIndicator && !hasBreakingFooter) {
344
+ return {
345
+ valid: false,
346
+ errors: [
347
+ 'Breaking change indicator (!) used but no BREAKING CHANGE footer found.',
348
+ '',
349
+ 'Add to footer:',
350
+ ' BREAKING CHANGE: description of what broke',
351
+ ],
352
+ };
353
+ }
354
+
355
+ return { valid: true };
356
+ }
357
+ ```
358
+
359
+ ### Check for Co-Authors
360
+
361
+ ```javascript
362
+ function validateCoAuthors(message) {
363
+ const coAuthorLines = message.match(/^Co-authored-by: .+/gm) || [];
364
+
365
+ for (const line of coAuthorLines) {
366
+ // Validate email format
367
+ if (!/^Co-authored-by: .+ <.+@.+\..+>$/.test(line)) {
368
+ return {
369
+ valid: false,
370
+ errors: [
371
+ 'Invalid Co-authored-by format.',
372
+ '',
373
+ 'Expected format:',
374
+ ' Co-authored-by: Name <email@example.com>',
375
+ '',
376
+ `Got: ${line}`,
377
+ ],
378
+ };
379
+ }
380
+ }
381
+
382
+ return { valid: true };
383
+ }
384
+ ```
385
+
386
+ ## Best Practices
387
+
388
+ ### ✅ DO
389
+
390
+ 1. **Keep subject line concise** (50 characters or less)
391
+ 2. **Use imperative mood** ("add" not "added")
392
+ 3. **Reference issues** in footer for feat/fix commits
393
+ 4. **Document breaking changes** with BREAKING CHANGE footer
394
+ 5. **Add body** for complex changes (explain why, not what)
395
+ 6. **Use scopes** for multi-module projects
396
+ 7. **Start with lowercase** after colon
397
+
398
+ ### ❌ DON'T
399
+
400
+ 1. **Don't end subject with period**
401
+ 2. **Don't use past tense** ("added" or "adds")
402
+ 3. **Don't be vague** ("fix stuff", "update files")
403
+ 4. **Don't exceed 72 characters** in subject
404
+ 5. **Don't mix multiple changes** in one commit
405
+ 6. **Don't forget issue references** for bug fixes
406
+ 7. **Don't capitalize** first word after colon
407
+
408
+ ## Automated Commit Message Preparation
409
+
410
+ Use `prepare-commit-msg` hook to pre-populate message:
411
+
412
+ **`.git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg`**:
413
+ ```bash
414
+ #!/bin/sh
415
+
416
+ # Get branch name
417
+ BRANCH=$(git rev-parse --abbrev-ref HEAD)
418
+
419
+ # Extract issue number from branch (e.g., feature/123-user-auth)
420
+ ISSUE=$(echo "$BRANCH" | grep -oE '[0-9]+' | head -1)
421
+
422
+ # Add issue reference if found
423
+ if [ -n "$ISSUE" ]; then
424
+ echo "" >> "$1"
425
+ echo "Refs #$ISSUE" >> "$1"
426
+ fi
427
+ ```
428
+
429
+ ## Integration with Tools
430
+
431
+ ### Commitlint (npm)
432
+
433
+ ```bash
434
+ # Install
435
+ npm install --save-dev @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
436
+
437
+ # Configure
438
+ echo "module.exports = {extends: ['@commitlint/config-conventional']}" > commitlint.config.js
439
+
440
+ # Create hook
441
+ echo "npx --no -- commitlint --edit \$1" > .git/hooks/commit-msg
442
+ chmod +x .git/hooks/commit-msg
443
+ ```
444
+
445
+ ### Husky + Commitlint
446
+
447
+ ```bash
448
+ # Install
449
+ npm install --save-dev husky @commitlint/cli @commitlint/config-conventional
450
+
451
+ # Setup husky
452
+ npx husky init
453
+
454
+ # Add commit-msg hook
455
+ npx husky add .husky/commit-msg 'npx --no -- commitlint --edit "$1"'
456
+ ```
457
+
458
+ ## Troubleshooting
459
+
460
+ ### Hook Not Running
461
+
462
+ **Solutions**:
463
+ 1. Check permissions: `chmod +x .git/hooks/commit-msg`
464
+ 2. Verify shebang: `#!/bin/sh`
465
+ 3. Check file location: Must be `.git/hooks/commit-msg` (no extension)
466
+
467
+ ### False Positives
468
+
469
+ **Issue**: Valid messages rejected
470
+
471
+ **Solutions**:
472
+ 1. Adjust regex pattern for your team's conventions
473
+ 2. Add exceptions for specific message patterns
474
+ 3. Allow more types if needed (e.g., `wip`, `hotfix`)
475
+
476
+ ### Merge Commits Failing
477
+
478
+ **Issue**: Merge commit messages rejected
479
+
480
+ **Solution**: Skip validation for merge commits:
481
+ ```javascript
482
+ if (message.startsWith('Merge') || message.startsWith('Revert')) {
483
+ process.exit(0);
484
+ }
485
+ ```
486
+
487
+ ## Emergency Bypass
488
+
489
+ ```bash
490
+ # Skip commit-msg validation
491
+ git commit --no-verify -m "Emergency fix"
492
+
493
+ # Or use environment variable
494
+ HUSKY_SKIP_HOOKS=1 git commit -m "message"
495
+ ```
496
+
497
+ ## Integration with Rulebook
498
+
499
+ If using `@hivehub/rulebook`, commit-msg hooks are automatically generated:
500
+
501
+ ```bash
502
+ # Initialize with hooks
503
+ npx @hivehub/rulebook init
504
+
505
+ # Configuration in .rulebook
506
+ {
507
+ "hooks": {
508
+ "commitMsg": {
509
+ "enabled": true,
510
+ "enforceConventional": true,
511
+ "requireIssueRef": ["feat", "fix"]
512
+ }
513
+ }

+ ## Common Pitfalls
518
+
519
+ 1. **❌ Too strict validation**: Allow flexibility for trivial commits
520
+ 2. **❌ No escape hatch**: Always allow `--no-verify`
521
+ 3. **❌ Blocking merge commits**: Skip validation for merge/revert
522
+ 4. **❌ Unclear error messages**: Show examples of valid format
523
+ 5. **❌ Not documenting conventions**: Add CONTRIBUTING.md with examples
