When husky installed and in package.json prepare: husky install script exists np crashes with

✖ SyntaxError: Unexpected token '>', "

This is what is happening in stdout when running np

Expected behavior

Should just work

Node.js - 21.7.1
npm - 10.5.0
Git - 2.42
OS - nixos 23.10 (unstable branch)

As a workaround i just removed prepare

You can fix it by doing:

"prepare": "husky install > /dev/null",

And if you update to version 9 of huskyI also think this issue will go away

@voxpelli love the idea with output, but it's not crossplatform.
Seems like husky made something with debug output in v9. I'll check later if it really fixes the issue

[slhck]

I had a similar issue when migrating from an old project that had:

HUSKY=0 np

in its release script. After migrating to Husky v9, and using husky instead of husky install, I could also remove the HUSKY=0 part and releasing worked fine.
