git-cz doesn't finish, doesn't return the prompt

[meszaros-lajos-gyorgy]

Hi!

Since one of the recent updates (sadly I don't know which one exactly) when I run git-cz, the commit is created as expected, pre-commit hook also runs - if there is any -, but commitizen never exits after it's done. I also tried git-cz --retry and it works fine, there is no issue there.

There was a ticket addressing the same issue, but it's creator claims, that he solved the issue by updating his node version: #545

I'm using node 10.10.0, npm 6.4.1, windows 7, commitizen 2.10.1 and cz-convencional-changelog 2.1.0.

I've tried using it through visual studio code's integrated terminal and windows command line.

There are no error messages, so this is how far I got.

Since git-cz --retry doesn't display options and it works fine, I have a hunch, that the real culprit might be the Inquirer package.

I've just realized, that commitizen uses version 1.2.3 of Inquirer, while the latest version is 6.2.0. 1.2.3 was released on Nov 13, 2016. Might worth trying to update it.

On mac it works fine.

Now the battery on my windows laptop is about to die on low charge and commitizen finished without any issue whatsoever. Is there a race condition somewhere in the code that causes this behavior?

[meszaros-lajos-gyorgy]

The power is back on and commitizen doesn't halt again.

And now with a shorter commit, it finished correctly...

FYI Inquirer 6 was released in commitizen 3.0.1

Thank you for the information! I'll recheck this as soon as I can and I'll give feedback on whether the issue still present or not.

Cheers.

Updated commitizen to 3.0.2 and all works fine! Closing ticket.
