You will only see the output of your print statements on the client
if you do 2 things:

1. Print to stderr instead of stdout.
2. Exit from the pre-commit hook script with a status other than 0.
Yes, this will cause your pre-commit hook to fail. You cannot show
output to the client unless your script fails.

Are you doing both of those things?

For example, in bash, you could do this:

#!/bin/bash

echo "This message will be seen by the client" 1>&2
exit 1
