The signature and usage of the pre-save hook is documented at the Keystone site:

  Post.schema.pre('save', function(next) {
   if (this.isModified('state') && this.isPublished() && !this.publishedAt) {
       this.publishedAt = new Date();
    }
  next();
});` 

User.js line 147:
], next);

next is not called.

possibly this was intended;
], next() );
