It's working just as the documentation says it does (emphasis mine),
This hook is invoked by **git commit**, and can be bypassed with the
--no-verify option.
It takes a single parameter, the name of the file that holds the proposed
commit log
message. Exiting with a non-zero status causes the git commit to abort.
It says that 'commit-msg' hook is invoked only for a "commit" (it's not
a MERGE-msg hook you see, it doesn't exist anyway). In case you see the
hook getting invoked for a merge then that's an issue, I guess. For
what kind of merges do you see the 'commit-msg' hook getting invoked?
