Running goreleaser (pro) v2.11.1 I triggered a panic exception with:

before:
  hooks:
    - go mod tidy
    - '{{ if index .Env "WANT_CAS_STATIC" }}./build/generate_cas.bash{{ end }}'

When the env-var is not present, this made an empty string in the hooks, which led to panic: runtime error: slice bounds out of range [1:0]

It's an easy workaround ({{ else }}true) but I figured I should report it.
