Issue with the judge in commit phase

Challenges
1

I’m stuck on Stage #JM9.

did anyone face the following problem?

it seems like the judge only checks the last line of git cat-file commit and checks for the commit message and it requires it to “dooby monkey vanilla dooby horsey dooby\n” and the problem is: if I put a ‘\n’ at the end of the commit message, then the last line is an empty “” line so it doesn’t match. if I commit the newline at the end of the commit message, then the commit message won’t match the expected string.

error message when I put the \n at the end: Expected “dooby monkey vanilla dooby horsey dooby\n” as commit message, got: “”

error message when I don’t: Expected “monkey horsey monkey doo doo vanilla\n” as commit message, got: “monkey horsey monkey doo doo vanilla”

Hi @ArshiAAkhavan, it seems like you might have accidentally introduced changes that break an earlier stage #IC4 (Read a blob object).

You can use our CLI to test against previous stages by running:

codecrafters test --previous

If you’d like me to review your code, feel free to upload it to GitHub and share the link.
