Just to clarify. This only happens when type-enum is set?

[Rio]

I can say no since I directly commented out the type-enum rule just to check if it works with other rules but it failed to catch the current commit message.

My current workaround is to use commit-msg husky instead of pre-commit hook and it works just fine

[escapedcat]

Uhm, ok, but the docs are correct then, right?

[Rio]

Oh Yeah, it's saying to use commit-msg. This made me think Commitlint does not even handle the pre-commit hook and people shouldn't be using this hook

[escapedcat]

👍 In this case this can be closed?

[Rio]

Yeah, can be closed. But I think this has to be mentioned in the docs since most developers use pre-commit hook to run the Commitlint rules

[escapedcat]

You wanna add a hint to the docs?

[Rio]

Yeah, I'll try to create a PR for this ASAP
