This error occurs when the directory containing the "pre-commit" command is not included in the system's PATH environment variable. To fix this, you will need to add the directory path to your PATH variable.

1. Find the directory that contains the "pre-commit" command. You can use the following command to locate it:

$ which pre-commit

This will give you the full path to the pre-commit command.

1. Open your ~/.bash_profile file using a text editor:

$ nano ~/.bash_profile

If the file does not exist, create it using:

$ touch ~/.bash_profile

1. Add the following line to the file, replacing [path/to/] with the directory path found in Step 1:

export PATH="$PATH:[path/to/]"

For example, if the pre-commit command is located in the directory "/usr/local/bin/", the line would be:

export PATH="$PATH:/usr/local/bin/"

1. Save and close the file.

2. Reload the Bash configuration by executing:

$ source ~/.bash_profile

Now, you should be able to run the "pre-commit" command without any issues.
