Is there a reason for the switch to bash ?

Or maybe @schnappfuesch can help 😊

The for-loop is using an invalid bracket syntax (((...))) for sh. The bash is a sh extension that understand this format. I'm also not sure if you can use the counter in the for-loop at all (using sh).
On most linuxe the sh is no longer directly installed but a replacement, which is linked to a different shell, so depending on the outcome of this link, the command might work (e.g. on ubuntu sh is linked to dash, which will fail).

If you pipe the script into sh using the curl command, you will also get this error:
Syntax error: Bad for loop variable.

A more portable solution would be

Suggested change

#!/bin/bash

#!/usr/bin/env bash

which works on all systems (including the more obscure ones like NixOS, where /bin/bash does not exist)

I like the idea of parameterizing the new commit message. I can also add this to the install script 👍

Thanks! That was actually the main reason why I forked your project

Also a very nice feature 🙌 I might also like to add this to the install script

Thanks :) I was too lazy to add it to the advanced option and I used it only for testing

Good catch! Is this important/relevant for all Linux?

I’ve worked on other scripts that use the sed command and it’s been relevant for all Linux user.

Yes, please, of course! And thank you for the script. It's been really helpful so far :)

yrave · 2020-05-06T12:33:21Z

I updated the script so that it can now use different message styles and different message regexes. Let me know what you think and if you want to merge it :)

janniks · 2021-01-30T08:09:17Z

Sorry for the delay! I want to merge this 🙈 I'll try in ~ 1-2 weeks, as I am a bit busy currently...
