Error when package.json not found

Pre-git breaks the .git hooks because it always require to look for ./node_modules in the root app. However our application as been restructured to enforce MAVEN strict folder structure. Hence we now put all our root files under src/main/webapp/. This causes the pre-git to no longer find installed pre hooks easily because it expects them to be under ./node_modules/.bin/pre-commit for example. Can you please take a look.

Start by tracing how pre-git locates package.json and ./node_modules/.bin/pre-commit when the application files are under src/main/webapp/. Verify the behavior with a Maven-style project layout and consider the work complete when pre-commit and other pre-git hooks are found and installed from that structure.
