Pre-commit hooks are a powerful way to automate checks and actions before each commit in your Git repository. This README guides you through the process of setting up and using custom pre-commit hooks using the pre-commit framework.

Before you start, ensure you have the required dependencies installed:

pip install -r requirements.txt

1. Create a file named .pre-commit-config.yaml in the repo where you want the pre-commit hooks to run:

repos:
-   repo: https://github.com/ph1zix/pre-commit-hooks
    rev: v1.0.0
    hooks:
        -   id: pyflakes
        -   id: double-quote-string-fixer

Replace the rev value with the specific commit hash you want to use. You can find the id values for the hooks in the .pre-commit-hooks.yaml file.

2. Install the pre-commit hook into your local .git/hooks/ directory:

pre-commit install

3. Test if the hooks work by making a commit:

git commit -a

Expand this repository by adding your own bash or python scripts into the pre_commit_hooks directory and update the .pre-commit-hooks.yaml file to tell pre-commit about it. You can choose at which git stage the hooks should run. You may need to extend setup.cfg as well for the hook's entry point. If you make changes and push them to the master branch, get the current commit hash using:

git rev-parse HEAD

Replace the rev value in your .pre-commit.config.yaml file with the hash and don't forget to install the hook again.
