pcregrep not found in post-commit about commit-comments HOT 6 CLOSED

Thank you very much!

Would you mind letting me know which Operating System you're running and which version as well. Also Bash version would be very helpful too.

Sure, I've observed this on Ubuntu 14.04, bash is "GNU bash, Version 4.3.11(1)-release (x86_64-pc-linux-gnu)"

I will add a similar conditional to the post-commit hook as is in the prepare-commit-msg hook to check if pcregrep is present. I apologize for leaving out the portability check.

Additionally, I did look up all packages which ship with Ubuntu 14.04 - and pcregrep is not included. I apologize for the oversight. Fix coming immediately.

If you could checkout PR #7 and verify that GNU grep is being used in the post-commit hook that would be much appreciated!

Hi, thanks for the fast fix. I've checked out your branch and do not see the error message anymore.

Yes, I have seen that the package is also available on Ubuntu, but then I would have to install everywhere. Centrally managed hooks are quite easy, synced packages lists not much so ;-).
