📝 Walkthrough

Walkthrough

This change replaces Husky-based git hooks with native .git-hooks directory, removes the project's package.json and all npm tooling, updates the CI workflow for shell-based commit validation, and simplifies the commitlint configuration by removing the extends property.

Changes

Cohort / File(s)	Summary
Git Hooks Migration .git-hooks/commit-msg, .husky/commit-msg, .husky/pre-commit	Introduced native .git-hooks/commit-msg script invoking commitlint via npx; removed Husky hook files (commit-msg and pre-commit).
Workflow Updates .github/workflows/commit-lint.yml	Renamed workflow, updated Node.js to version 20, replaced npm commitlint invocation with manual shell-based validation loop that processes each commit in the PR range.
Configuration Changes commitlint.config.js, package.json	Removed extends property from commitlint config; deleted entire package.json (including dependencies, scripts, and tooling configuration).
Documentation README.md	Simplified hook setup instructions by replacing detailed Node.js setup steps with single git hooks path configuration command.

Poem

🐰 From Husky's nest we hop away,
To native hooks that save the day,
No package chains to weigh us down,
Just .git-hooks in our town,
Simpler scripts make commits bright! ✨

Inline comments:
In @.git-hooks/commit-msg:
- Around line 1-4: Update the commit hook file so it has executable permissions
(mode 100755) — run chmod +x on the script in repo and commit the permission
change; inside the script (which starts with the shebang "#!/bin/sh" and runs
"npx --yes `@commitlint/cli` --edit \"$1\"") optionally add a quick Node/npm/npx
availability check at the top to print a clearer error if npx is missing before
invoking the command.

In @.github/workflows/commit-lint.yml:
- Around line 22-29: CI pins `@commitlint/cli`@20.4.3 but the local hook
(.git-hooks/commit-msg) uses an unpinned npx invocation, causing version drift;
update the commit hook to use the same pinned version by changing its npx call
to reference `@commitlint/cli`@20.4.3 (the same package/version used in the
workflow) so commitlint behavior is identical locally and in CI.
