RE: The commit-msg hook is not invoked by git-merge as specified in documentation

Hello, thanks for the reply.

Sorry for not including it originally, the platform I was using to test was WSL (Windows subsystem for Linux). And the git version was the latest available from apt-get in WSL, 2.7.4.

It seems like one of these things is affecting the execution of the hook. I just did the exact same test in Cygwin with git version 2.17 and it works as expected here.

Do you know if it's a recent change that git-merge should invoke the hook as well? Or do you think it is related to using git in WSL?
