Minimum git version not checked

[therealgilles]

Husky v5 does not check that git is at least 2.9. I was trying to install it with 2.8.1, nothing got installed but no errors were reported. It even tried to git commit my staged files.

Thanks for the feedback. Out of curiosity what's the OS used, is it the default version?

I'm running Mac OS Big Sur 11.2 beta but I'm not sure Apple ships git with it.
It's possible I had not run brew update in a while, or that I had not run 'brew link --overwrite git' and /usr/local/bin/git was still pointing to the 2.8.1 version. Having a package install run 'git commit' without an explanation is very disconcerting.

Ok, I think I better understand the issue. I'll fix that 👍

Should be good in v5.0.8

[therealgilles]

Could be useful to mention in a comment to check the git version maybe?

[typicode]

Agree, I'll add that to the docs.

I've updated the troubleshoot section with Git version requirement 👍
