I have been trying to initialize a git repository, but I can't even make the initial commit since it fails by giving me the error below. I tried uninstalling python and installing it again, running git bash as admin, but to no avail. Also... I couldn't find anything else with this error:

$ git commit -m "init"
.git/hooks/pre-commit: line 11: py: command not found
.git/hooks/pre-commit: line 12: py: command not found
                there seems to be a pre-commit hook in .git/hooks/. If you never wanted it, you can simply remove it

                If this was the result of a simple git init (and without the directory being a git repository before that), you should check your ~/.gitconfig file, to see if it adds any pre-commit hooks by default.
