GIT - invalid revision range in local repositories

I'm trying to force commits to include Jira ticket ID with pre-receive hook. To test it locally I'm using repository as server-side, so I ran:

git init --bare server - in hooks/pre-receive I added logic to check if commit starts with [TICKET_ID] or [NA]. When I clone repository git clone server client and if commit doesn't include this ticket I need to edit commit message, so I use: git rebase -i COMMIT_HASH^, then I need to change pick to reword, edit commit message and git push. As it can be really annoying I want to add prepare-commit-msg hook to automatically add ticket from branch name , which looks like:

#!/bin/bash
# Include any branches for which you wish to disable this script
if [ -z "$BRANCHES_TO_SKIP" ]; then
  BRANCHES_TO_SKIP=(master develop staging test)
fi
# Get the current branch name and check if it is excluded
BRANCH_NAME=$(git symbolic-ref --short HEAD)
BRANCH_EXCLUDED=$(printf "%s\n" "${BRANCHES_TO_SKIP[@]}" | grep -c "^$BRANCH_NAME$")
# Trim it down to get the parts we're interested in
TRIMMED=$(echo $BRANCH_NAME | sed -e 's:^\([^-]*-[^-]*\)-.*::' -e \
    'y/abcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz/ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZ/')
# If it isn't excluded, preprend the trimmed branch identifier to the given message
if [ -n "$BRANCH_NAME" ] &&  ! [[ $BRANCH_EXCLUDED -eq 1 ]]; then
  sed -i.bak -e "1s/^/$TRIMMED /" $1
fi

When I want to push changes: git push --set-upstream origin AZ-0987-test I'm getting error:

And git log --oneline return this:

Could somebody tell me what went wrong or what I'm doing wrong?

EDIT - Steps to reproduce my problem

• run git init --bare server
• configure server/hooks/pre-receive with:

#!/bin/bash

# Jira ticket pattern
# JIRA_TICKET_PATTERN="[A-Z]+-[0-9]+"
# (^\[NA\])|(^\[[A-Z]{2,}-\d+\])
JIRA_TICKET_PATTERN="(^\[NA\])|(\[[A-Z]+-[0-9]+\])"

# Read the new references from standard input
while read oldrev newrev refname; do
  # Iterate over the new commits
  for commit in $(git rev-list ${oldrev}..${newrev}); do
    # Get the commit message
    message=$(git log --format=%B -n 1 ${commit})

    # Check if the commit message already contains a Jira ticket number
    if [[ ${message} =~ ${JIRA_TICKET_PATTERN} ]]; then
    	echo "Commit ${commit} already contains a [Jira ticket number] or [NA]: ${BASH_REMATCH[0]}"
    else
		echo "MESSAGE ${message}"
		echo "ERROR:"
		echo "ERROR: Your push was rejected because the commit"
		echo "ERROR: $commit in ${refname#refs/heads/}"
		echo "ERROR: is missing the JIRA Issue, for example: '[MM-1234] msg' or '[NA] msg'."
		echo "ERROR:"
		echo "ERROR: Please fix the commit message and push again."
		echo "ERROR: https://help.github.com/en/articles/changing-a-commit-message"
		echo "ERROR"
		exit 1
    fi
  done

• clone repository with: git clone server client
• create file, add file, commit with wrong message - you should get error
• change commit message - run git rebase -i COMMIT^, change pick>reword, save, change commit message , [AB-1234] message, save
• git push - it should work now
• in .git/hooks/prepare-commit-msg (in cloned repository) paste script from my question
• run git branch -b SO-987654-test-brach
• add file, commit without any ticker in msg - ticker should be added automatically, push changes
• you should see an error

Your pre-receive isn't checking for new branches, you're just using $old..$new or some equivalent, which won't work except in restricted situations.

#!/bin/bash --
# pre-receive hook to vet all inbound commits not in existing history

# collect all non-deleted tips, *[^0]* is any string w/ a nonzero
while read old new ref; do
	incoming+=("$old $new $ref")
	[[ $new = *[^0]* ]] && news+=($new)
done

# vet each commit, id's via here-doc to keep shell environ access
while read commit; do
	check $commit here || hookrc=1
done <<EOD
$(	git rev-list ${news[@]} --not --all	)
EOD

exit $hookrc

(note: the Mac ships with a criminally-neglected bash install, you'll need the brew install bash version.)
