 If your default php-cli uses PHP7.4 (see `ln -s /etc/alternatives/php`), you might have issues running with a so-called `platform_check.php` script when running `composer update` anyway. This is because this script doesn't user the proper launch context, and you might need to change your default settings on Ubuntu (i.e. change the link /etc/alternatives/php to point to the other php version) before launching `composer update`. You can always revert that operation later on if you need to go back to work on Chamilo 1.11 and Composer complains again.

+# An example hook script to verify what is about to be pushed.  Called by "git
+# push" after it has checked the remote status, but before anything has been
+# pushed.  If this script exits with a non-zero status nothing will be pushed.
+#
+# This hook is called with the following parameters:
+#
+# $1 -- Name of the remote to which the push is being done
+# $2 -- URL to which the push is being done
+#
+# If pushing without using a named remote those arguments will be equal.
+#
+# Information about the commits which are being pushed is supplied as lines to
+# the standard input in the form:
+#
+#   <local ref> <local sha1> <remote ref> <remote sha1>
+#
+# This sample shows how to prevent push of commits where the log message starts
+# with "WIP" (work in progress).
