/usr/local/bin not in PATH for git hooks

[gilbitron]

The problem

I have a pre-commit git hook with a Docker command like:

docker compose exec -T -u ...

When trying to commit files in GitHub Desktop I get an error from the hook "docker: command not found". Committing files from the command line works fine. On further investigation, it looks like /usr/local/bin is missing from my PATH when git hooks run from GitHub Desktop. Any ideas how to resolve this?

Release version

2.9.12 (arm64)

@gilbitron Did you have any luck resolving this?

[gilbitron]

@younkim I just brute-forced it:

PATH=/usr/local/bin:$PATH && docker compose exec -T -u ...

Bump on this to get fixed on Github's end. It would be much more ideal to automate adding the env variable to PATH upon installation of GH Desktop if that's possible :)
