Troubleshooting¶

How to Skip Author Name Check¶

In some cases, Commit Check may fail due to an invalid author_name, as shown below:

check committer name.....................................................Failed
- hook id: check-author-name
- exit code: 1

Commit rejected by Commit-Check.

Type author_name check failed => 12
It doesn't match regex: ^[A-Za-zÀ-ÖØ-öø-ÿ\u0100-\u017F\u0180-\u024F ,.\'-]+$|.*(\[bot])
The committer name seems invalid
Suggest: run command `git config user.name "Your Name"`

To fix it, you can either update your Git config or temporarily skip the check using one of the following methods.

Bypass Specific Hook¶

Use the --no-verify flag to skip the pre-commit hook:

# Amend the commit without running hooks
git commit --amend --author="Xianpeng Shen <xianpeng.shen@gmail.com>" --no-edit --no-verify

Bypass All Hooks¶

Alternatively, use the SKIP=your-hook-name environment variable, like below:

# Set the correct Git author name
git config user.name "Xianpeng Shen"

# Force amend while skipping the specified hook
SKIP=check-author-name git commit --amend --author="Xianpeng Shen <xianpeng.shen@gmail.com>" --no-edit
