Hello, I’m trying to add a simple change to documentation related to [issue #16624](https://github.com/astropy/astropy/issues/16624). I’m just trying to removed the three paragraphs about affiliated packages in astropy/docs/development/codeguide.rst and replace them with a link to the affiliated packages information on the astropy website. I keep running into `check-case-conflict` and `check-merge-conflict` (trace below) in Git when I attempt to commit my changes and I am, admittedly, super green, so I’m not sure how to go about solving this. Can anyone lend a hand? ```auto check for added large files..............................................Passed check for case conflicts.................................................Failed - hook id: check-case-conflict - exit code: 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 198, in _run_module_as_main File "", line 88, in _run_code File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Scripts\check-case-conflict.EXE\ __main__.py", line 7, in sys.exit(main()) ~~~~ ^^ File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\check_case_conflict.py", line 68, in main return find_conflicting_filenames(args.filenames) File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\check_case_conflict.py", line 29, in find_conflicting_filenames repo_files = set(cmd_output('git', 'ls-files').splitlines()) ~~~~~~~~~~ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\util.py", line 23, in cmd_output raise CalledProcessError(cmd, retcode, proc.returncode, stdout, stderr) pre_commit_hooks.util.CalledProcessError: (('git', 'ls-files'), 0, 128, '', b'error: missing config value GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_0\nfatal: unable to parse command-line config\n') check json...........................................(no files to check)Skipped check for merge conflicts................................................Failed - hook id: check-merge-conflict - exit code: 1 Traceback (most recent call last): File "", line 198, in _run_module_as_main File "", line 88, in _run_code File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Scripts\check-merge-conflict.EXE\ __main__.py", line 7, in sys.exit(main()) ~~~~ ^^ File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\check_merge_conflict.py", line 37, in main if not is_in_merge() and not args.assume_in_merge: ~~~~~~~~~~~ ^^ File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\check_merge_conflict.py", line 20, in is_in_merge git_dir = cmd_output('git', 'rev-parse', '--git-dir').rstrip() ~~~~~~~~~~ ^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^ File "...\.cache\pre-commit\repo_o3jkek1\py_env-default\Lib\site-packages\pre_commit_hooks\util.py", line 23, in cmd_output raise CalledProcessError(cmd, retcode, proc.returncode, stdout, stderr) pre_commit_hooks.util.CalledProcessError: (('git', 'rev-parse', '--git-dir'), 0, 128, '', b'error: missing config value GIT_CONFIG_VALUE_0\nfatal: unable to parse command-line config\n') check for broken symlinks............................(no files to check)Skipped check toml...........................................(no files to check)Skipped check xml............................................(no files to check)Skipped check yaml...........................................(no files to check)Skipped detect private key.......................................................Passed fix end of files.........................................................Passed trim trailing whitespace.................................................Passed rst directives end with two colons.......................................Passed rst ``inline code`` next to normal text..................................Passed no unicode replacement chars.............................................Passed codespell................................................................Passed ruff.................................................(no files to check)Skipped ruff-format..........................................(no files to check)Skipped sp-repo-review...........................................................Passed changelog filenames..................................(no files to check)Skipped changelog filenames for other category...............(no files to check)Skipped ``` ---

Hi @zerosumhippo, sorry about the late reply I’ve never seen such an error but it looks like something is broken on your system (either pre-commit or git itself). You should be able to work around the problem by simply skipping pre-commit altogether when you commit with ```auto git commit. ... --no-verify ``` or, to disable it permanently ```auto pre-commit uninstall ``` of course this doesn’t solve the root issue. Have you tried opening an issue at [GitHub - pre-commit/pre-commit: A framework for managing and maintaining multi-language pre-commit hooks.](https://github.com/pre-commit/pre-commit/) ?
