Hello If git commit executes .git/hooks/post-commit it will pass GIT_DIR env variable to the script. However, if hooksPath is set in $HOME/.gitconfig, git commit executes hooksPath/post-commit without passing GIT_DIR env variable to the script. Expected behavior: GIT_DIR is passed to hooksPath/post-commit Actual behavior: GIT_DIR isn't passed to hooksPath/post-commit Please run the attached shell script in an empty directory to reproduce this issue. The script is using strace to determine whether GIT_DIR is passed to the hook script. The script will run "git gui": the user is expected to simply commit changes from the gui and then close the gui for the script to finish. The script is exploiting the fact that (currently) command-line "git commit" and graphical "git gui" commit are invoking different commit hooks. Script output: - !!! missing GIT_DIR in git-commit.strace - execve(".git/hooks/post-commit", [... "GIT_DIR=.git" ... $ cat ~/.gitconfig [core] hooksPath = /home/atom/dev/git-hooks git version 2.21.0 Sincerely Jan
