BUG: Fails when commit message is empty

Question

bashtage opened this issue 3 years ago · comments

Seeing a fatal error when the commit message is empty:

Cannot read properties of null (reading 'message')

Presumably there is no reason why this should be required and it should work with an empty commit message (some commits only have titles)

Hi there, do you have a stack trace? Perhaps look in the backport.log file.

I am not able to reproduce this bug. I added a commit with no commit message, and was able to backport it:
backport-org/backport-demo#82

Can you try upgrading to the latest version of backport (7.0.0) and see if that fixes the problem?

npm install backport@7.0.0 -g

Thanks!
