Afer pre-commit install in my repo, I commit it and get:

➜  recommender_system git:(recommender_sys) ✗ git commit -m "test pre-commit"
An error has occurred: InvalidConfigError: File /Users/zhao/repo/book/.pre-commit-config.yaml does not exist

Do you have a .pre-commit-config.yaml? You need one of those to tell pre-commit what hooks you want to run. To see how to configure one, see http://pre-commit.com

@asottile Sorry, I forgot to merge latest from source repo. So there is no .pre-commit-config.yaml.

Thanks for your help!

[asottile]

No problem! Good to hear you figured it out. Do you have any suggestions to improve the messaging?

@khairnarTK whatever repository you tried to hook up does not have a .pre-commit-hooks.yaml

the error alone is not useful, you need to show your configuration

[asottile]

your error is also different, OP's issue is about .pre-commit-*config*.yaml yours is .pre-commit-*hooks*.yaml
