Why is this closed?

Facing the same issue with Sourcetree.

Still having this issue when I am committing with gitkraken. Perhaps we could reopen, @chrisblossom what you think?

Because this issue was created so long ago and I closed it without commenting why (my mistake, sorry!), I would recommend opening a new issue with a link to this issue in-case it is still relevant.

I’m facing same issue as well…

Yes, why is this closed?

@lukeselbeck i’m commiting/pushing using git kraken and visual studio, there should be a way to export variables for husky

Figured out my problem. For any future peoples: I was commiting/pushing with vscode and that was giving me the above error. When I commit/push with the terminal, it works fine!
