To check that people ran the pre-commit linters.

Committing itself won’t be possible

That's not how pre-commit hooks work. They're entirely optional and opt-in. You need CI to also run them to ensure people don't forget.

They're optional if you make them optional. I didn't. You do as you please. 😄

No, they're inherently optional in Git. There's no way to "check in" a git hook. You have to put in your README

Clone the repo and then please run pre-commit install! Oh and whatever you do don't git commit --no-verify!

You definitely need to actually check the lints in CI. It's very easy though, just add pre-commit run -a to your CI script.

pre-commit also has a free service for open source GitHub repos too. They’ll even push an autofix commit for you if your tools are configured for it
