There are many possible error messages when a commit fails, depending
on why it failed. There is no default message when a commit fails,
because there's no default reason why a commit would fail. It should
succeed, unless something is wrong. We don't know yet what's wrong.
Since the next error message shown mentions the pre-commit hook,
that's something I know what to do with, so that's what I'm having
you investigate. If you don't think the pre-commit hook is the
problem, you could verify this by removing the pre-commit hook and
seeing if you still have the problem.
