As I read downthread, the behaviour was due to your pre-commit hook.

Normally below the "System Info" section in the 'git bugreport' template there should be an "Enabled Hooks" section, which does not appear above. I would be curious to know why; I'm guessing you ran 'git bugreport' from outside your repo and so it said:

[Enabled Hooks] not run from a git repository - no hooks to show

and you deleted that section ?

I'm thinking that maybe if the 'git bugreport' template mentioned upfront that the command should be run in the repo where you observed a bug, maybe it would lead to fewer back and forth like in this thread ? (CC'ing Emily who implemented 'git bugreport').

I've sent a PR [1] for the web site so that this is also mentioned at https://git-scm.com/community.

Cheers, Philippe.
