GIT021

Error

The git commit command includes --no-verify or -n flag, which skips pre-commit hooks.

Why this matters

Pre-commit hooks enforce code quality, formatting, and security checks. Skipping them bypasses these protections and can introduce issues that are harder to catch later.

How to fix

Remove --no-verify and fix whatever issue the pre-commit hook reports:

# Instead of:
git commit -sS --no-verify -m "fix(parser): handle edge case"

# Fix the hook issue and commit normally:
git commit -sS -m "fix(parser): handle edge case"

Configuration

[validators.git.no_verify]
enabled = true
severity = "error"

Disable the validator:

[validators.git.no_verify]
enabled = false
