It looks like your commitinfo script(s) is/are failing. Maybe because 
there's a bug in it.  Who wrote the script?

The "commitinfo" file is used to control pre-commit checks.  It 
specifies a filter program to run for specific directories.  A 
non-zero exit of the filter program will cause the commit to be 
aborted.

This explains why you can do everything but commit.
