how do i read the commit message in pre-commit hook

[pawandeore]

hi i want to check commit message with regex pattern but the problem is
$1 doesn’t has commit message, so how can i get the commit message ? please anyone..

`

#!/usr/bin/env sh
. "$(dirname -- "$0")/_/husky.sh"

message="$(cat $1)"

echo "MSG".$message

`

The pre-commit hook doesn't have access to the commit message. You'll need to use the commit-msg hook to have access to the path that the temp file is saved in with the message, then you can read it.
