husky v9 lint-staged not triggered on pre-commit

Context
Please describe your issue and provide some context:

• Mac
• Iterm and VSCode
• Hook doesn't run

husky 9.0.11
lint-staged 15.2.2

Used https://github.com/uulm-mrm/git_hooks to get a basic husky+lint-staged+prettier+eslint setup.
If I run npx lint-staged myself in a terminal I see the expected scripts run but committing doesn't trigger the scripts and allows the commit to go through.

Running git config core.hooksPath outputs .husky/_
git --version output git version 2.45.1

troubleshooting section says to be on git 2.9 which feels like a mistake as 2.45.1 is latest

package.json

"scripts": {
    ....
    "prepare": "husky"
},
...
"lint-staged": {
    "*.js": "eslint --cache --fix",
    "*.{js,mjs,css,md,hbs}": "prettier --write"
}

.husky/pre-commit

npx lint-staged

I also had the same problem

Any chance your package.json isn't in the root directory of your repo?

I thought mine was broken (which is how I came across this issue), but then I found an adjusted config from a similar repo, and it's working fine now. My change is just "prepare": "cd .. && husky", but that may be irrelevant for you 🤔
