I'm trying to stop the repo push in Bitbucket if the commit statement doesn't have the defined Jira issue id in the remark. I have successfully invoked the URL for checking the commit remark via webhooks but unable to figure out the way to stop the push in case of failure.
Customise the following script from this example of a msg-commit git hook.
#!/bin/bash
MSG="$1"
if ! grep -qE "updated" "$MSG";then
cat "$MSG"
echo "Your commit message must contain the word 'updated'"
exit 1
fi
Check this code into git, and then run
# give the script "execute" permission
chmod 755 commit-msg
# put the script in the correct place
cp commit-msg .git/hooks/commit-msg
If you try and create a commit without the word 'updated' in the message, then this hook will prevent the commit from being created successfully.

The
commit-msg hooktakes one parameter, which again is the path to a temporary file that contains the commit message written by the developer. If this script exits non-zero, Git aborts the commit process, so you can use it to validate your project state or commit message before allowing a commit to go through. In the last section of this chapter, We’ll demonstrate using this hook to check that your commit message is conformant to a required pattern.
Note that anyone else who clones your repository will also need to copy the hook into .git/hooks/commit-msg
